Selaginella lepidophylla syn. Lycopodium lepidophyllum

So guys this will be the last photo i will post of this plant now, dont want to bore you with it. This is the 2nd one a much better example. Pretty awesome i think. If it does anything else i will keep you all posted 😊

Plant photos are never boring 😍 this is awesome 👍

Looks fascinating @krishnahairdo cannot tell by the pic how big is it?

Wow that's incredible

Im not sure @linfoster @janric i would say as big as an orange. You can put them altogether in a bowl if you wish, i only got these as i was intrigued to see what they did and wether they did what it said, experiment succesful i think ☺️

Yes I agree never heard of them before thank you for putting them on😊

My pleasure @janric 😊

As my son would say that's awesome! 👍

It's been so interesting to see it grow. Thanks @krishnahairdo I might get some for grandkids 😘😘

Geeat idea @fuschia. Been a fab little experiment, enjoyed reading about them, there are so many plants out there that have amazing abilities for spreading their seeds

Hope my ones turn up tomorrow then I can give one to Charlie to take home to his mum 😊 @krishnahairdo

So this is this morning quite a lot of green

Oh wow amazing 👏👏

Incredible difference

Amazing bit of nature

It's coming alive☺️

Been fascinating watching this develop @krishnahairdo 🤓

It has @debs69 and in such a short amount of time!

Wow, that's incredible , I can't pretend to understand exactly how it does that but it's very well adapted to its environment in the wild. Does it still have more to go, and then what do you do with it then? 🤓📝

@richard.spicer.7906, it can take upto 3 days to fully turn green, as long as it has water it will stay green and should produce seeds, when its starved of water, it will curl up, dry out to the begining then keep it as long as you want, then start the whole process again, they can stay dried up apparently for 50 years! Dont think the specimens i got are that great, as when i googled it, the videos on there were amazing. Just a little thing i found interesting and gave it a go ☺️

It's definitely on my want it list it's a fun plant 🤗 @krishnahairdo

Hi Kris I've just ordered 3 Jericho plants one for me and one each for the girls @krishnahairdo

@elflin where have you ordered them from amazon? Did they cost you much? 😘

5and a half hours soaked in water and a few bits of green are coming 👍🏻

Quite a fascinating plant

😆@linfoster

Other halfs just come home and when i shown him he was amazed what it had done in 6 hours. Got 4 in a pack and got 2 on the go now haha

@linfoster im always up at crack of dawn and earlier every day, like you cant sleep 😤

@linfoster wears me out, need a nana nap at around 2pm but cant have one because of work 🙄

Do you just keep it in water @krishnahairdo 🤗

@fuschia yes it needs water or it will go back to its dry state again, im presuming if it does that you can just add water and it will go green again

I agree @linfoster @krishnahairdo I wake up then can't get back to sleep. I just lay there thinking about different things whilst having tropical moments lol 😂😂😂

Definatly is my age, i love getting up early though, makes the day longer, especially in the summer! 😎

😂😂😂

Ooh @krishnahairdo. That would be great if it did you would have it forever 😜😜

In water

Not sure what it is. Is it a flower head??

Ok you got me intrigued 😂what is it ? 🤔

Want to know as well 😒

Rose of jericho soaking in water, should open up and turn green in a few hours

Read about it now #valwantsit

I have just googled it and none the wiser😧

@elflin you can get them on ebay mine came from china though, the slow boat😜

I'll look on Amazon over the week end thanks @krishnahairdo 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

In its dry state. Intersted to see what will happen in 24 hours of being soaked in water 😉
