    I live in Florida, I'm from Minnesota.
    This moss creeps me out it scary and on everything even power lines.
    When it gets wet it gets heavy it snaps off large branches.

    It's a air plant that gets water from the air. I live in the Sunshine State and it's all over.

    How does it get up into the tree in the first place?
    And why does it grow on some kinds of trees, but not all?

      Basically it's like a dandelion with its seeds I believe and I think some trees have bark that's not suitable for the plant typically it grows on hardwood trees

    So what does elevation have to do with its growth, cause I live in eastern NC where it’s stupidly humid and Spanish moss only grows once you get really close to the beach

    • @savannahtreefoundation9367
      @savannahtreefoundation9367  3 роки тому +3

      It may be due more to the species that grow at certain elevations. Spanish moss does show a preference for some low-elevation species such as Live Oak and Bald Cypress because of the high amount of minerals that is leached from their leaves.
