According to this revision, the new name for this plant is now \u003cem\u003eDidiclis plana\u003c\/em\u003e . We will continue to use the old name for the time being, until the new names are confirmed by other authors.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eThis \u003cem\u003eSelaginella species\u003c\/em\u003e is originally from Southeast Asia, but has since been introduced to South and Central America and Africa (likely through human activity). It is thus one of the most widespread \u003cem\u003eSelaginella\u003c\/em\u003e species. It grows as a dense bush with many fern-like branches that reach about 30 cm in height. The species name \"plana\" (= flat) derives from the flat, overlapping leaves, which create the illusion of a large, continuous, and flat surface. \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/inaturalist-open-data.s3.amazonaws.com\/photos\/252816741\/original.jpeg\"\u003eHere is\u003c\/a\u003e a picture of a large branch illustrating this.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The variety offered here exhibits irregular, white variegation.

Even with very good packaging, some pieces will likely break off after shipping. Unfortunately, this cannot be prevented, but it doesn't significantly harm the plant.
