Rob Posted by Mark z7 Sharptown, MD on December 24, 2024, 4:02 am Years ago you sent me some spanish moss. I was out walking in the yard and noticed that 1 strand is still surviving. For how long I don't know. Also, I wandered in my woods area where I scattered a lot of the minor seeds you sent me and there must be 2 dozen coming up. I just thought you would like to know. Enjoy life buddy!

Re: Rob Posted by Nick z7b Md on December 24, 2024, 11:12 am, in reply to "Re: Rob" I drape it over the Norway Spruce trees in my yard and the Bald Cypress trees in the water behind my house. It doesn't die, the birds carry it off to build nests in the spring. You can but it on Etsy

Mark Posted by Rob N TN on December 25, 2024, 4:40 pm, in reply to "Rob" Merry Christmas Mark wow, that's unreal the Spanish Moss has lived that long. So glad to hear it. I have no idea what happened to mine, My cousin gathered it for me down in Florida. so glad the seeds germinated too. I normally just scatter them on the ground as that's how they fall anyway.It works too. Thanks for making my day friend, be safe buddy

Re: Rob Posted by TominPrestonMD on December 28, 2024, 12:57 pm, in reply to "Rob" I've had it live for years also. I think we just need to find the perfect spot for it. I know someone on Kent Island had some in a loblolly Pine tree for years. It's not super hard to believe. The original collection for the species was said to of come from Maryland... No idea where tho.
