Undulate Atrichum moss commented on by wilkie Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada10 years ago

Thanks MilesBerkley! The soil wasn't that sandy and it was on top of the overturned log. It had very undulate leaves unlike Polytrichum commune. I could see the rows of lamellae on these guys so I don't think it's P. commune. I love the Polytrichacae they always look like little pine trees to me.

Looks like Juniper. They use this to make gin!

Common Mullein commented on by wilkie Wisconsin, USA10 years ago

I think this is considered a weed in B.C. It looks like Mullein (Verbascum thapsus)

Tetraphis Moss commented on by wilkie Schönstedt, Freistaat Thüringen, Germany10 years ago

I think this looks more like Polytrichum. Probably P.piliferum

Musgo. Mosses commented on by wilkie Alpuente, Comunitat Valenciana, Spain10 years ago

This is hard to ID without a microscope and the specimen but I would say it's in the Grimmiaceae since it's growing on a dry rock and seems to have a long hairpoint

Perhaps Plagiomnium cuspidatum...
