Cultivation and Propagation

Leucobryum aneitense is a species of moss that can be propagated by spores or division. It prefers moist, shady locations and can be grown in a variety of soils. It is best propagated by division, as this will ensure that the moss will stay in the same spot and not spread out. Spores can also be used, but they tend to take longer to germinate and establish. Once established, Leucobryum aneitense requires minimal maintenance and can tolerate a range of temperatures and light levels.
