Andreaeobryum macrosporum
Also called Bigspore Arctic Granite Moss
Big spore andreaeobryum moss is a tiny wild moss found on rock in Arctic and subarctic Alaska and western Canada, not a garden plant. It is the only species in its genus and family, so there is no cultivation advice to give.
Andreaeobryum is a genus of moss with a single species Andreaeobryum macrosporum, endemic to Alaska and western Canada. The genus is placed as a separate family, order and class among the mosses.
