How to keep Selaginella Douglasii.

Pruning

Douglas' spikemoss is an evergreen plant with foliage that resembles moss. To encourage growth and maintain its shape, prune it in early spring by removing any dead or overgrown stems. Make sure to use sterilized shears and cut just above a node. Regular light trimming throughout the season can support the plant's health, but avoid heavy pruning to minimize stress.
