Ruby-Red Clubmoss

Selaginella erythropus, also called a "resurrection" plant,
is a highly adapted African club moss that shrivels up
when there is no water and "resurrects" when wet.
The backs of the "fronds" turn red during winter.

Very nice pam. AmI aloowed to say the void on the left takes away from it though. :O) A senile opinion.

Also nicely shot. The greens almost look reptilian!
