Btw, my money would be on Thuidium tamariscinum, Common Tamarisk-moss. http://www.bbsfieldguide.org.uk/content/...
Whatever it is, it's a gorgeous plant!

I was going to recommend this excellent guide (only about £25 and packed with great photos for every species) but it turns out they've started to make it available online: http://www.bbsfieldguide.org.uk/
