Resurrection Plant

We have several of these Resurrection Plants (Selaginella lepidophylla) Dry and curled up they are about 3 to 4 inches in diameter. See photos. When placed in a bowl of water they open up to approximately 10 to 12 inches in diameter. And about 2 to 5 inches high. Sometimes called Rose of Jericho. It is a species of desert plant in the spikemoss family. It's renowned for its ability to survive almost complete desiccation. The stems curl into a tight ball when dry and uncurling only when exposed to moisture. See photos. Just place the plant in a bowl of water with some pebbles in the bottom. Then put in indirect light, not scorching sun. Rehydrate occasionally. If you forget to water and it dries up it will rehydrate again and again. Not only do these plants have the ability to come back to life, but they have a life span of 200 to 250 years. We have several of these plants. $5 each Price firm. Cash only.
