Sphagnum Contortum
In addition, Sphagnum contortum is a hardy species found in both North America and Europe. It is commonly known as sphagnum contortum, twisted peat moss and twisted peat moss. This species is dioecious, meaning it has male and female organs on separate plants. Although rare, S. contortum also has capsules.
Sphagnum contortum is found in minerotrophic habitats, riparian areas, peat bogs and rarely in open wet forest. It does not tolerate shade and is found at moderate to low elevations. It is common in northern and western parts of the British Isles, but rare in southern and eastern parts. It is also found in various parts of the United States.
It is one of the most base-demanding of the Sphagnum species and is found in rich springs and fens with high pH water where there is little or no nutrient enrichment.
It is a fascinating and hardy moss species that adds beauty and diversity to the ecosystems in which it is found. Its ability to thrive in a variety of conditions and its unique colouring make it truly remarkable.
