Here’s a fun fact – Spanish moss is not Spanis Here’s a fun fact – Spanish moss is not Spanish and it’s not a moss! Seriously! You’ve probably seen this tiny little plant hanging from Vizcaya’s 100-year-old oaks because it’s actually an epiphyte (or air plant), which means it doesn’t need soil to thrive. It can grow on other plants with its roots exposed to the air. It’s also not harmful to its host at all, as you can see from our thriving trees. Here’s where the fun fact gets fun! Spanish moss has routinely been used as stuffing material in everything from mattresses to home insulation. Plus, it gives our gardens a rather romantic quality, don’t you think? Save this post or share it with a fellow plant lover. And if you have other fun facts about plants, share them in the comments. You might inspire our next post! ------------------ Vamos a compartir algo divertido. ¡El musgo español no es español y no es un musgo! ¡En serio! Probablemente hayas visto esta pequeña plantita colgando de los robles centenarios de Vizcaya porque en realidad es una planta epífita (o planta de aire), lo que significa que no necesita tierra para prosperar. Puede crecer sobre otras plantas con sus raíces expuestas al aire. Tampoco es dañino para su anfitrión, como puede ver en nuestros fuertes árboles. Ademas, el musgo español se ha utilizado habitualmente como material de relleno en todo, desde colchones hasta aislamiento para el hogar. Tambien le da a nuestros jardines una cualidad bastante romántica, ¿no crees? Guarda esta publicación o compártela con un amigo que tambien es amante de las plantas. Y si tienes otros datos divertidos sobre las plantas, compártelos en los comentarios. ¡Puede que inspires nuestra próxima publicación! #thesouth #southerncharm #southernliving #southern #thenaturalstate #spanishmoss #historicdistrict #southernlife #spanishmosslove #spanishmosstrees #oaktrees #ilovewhereilive #myfrontyard #outwalking #baretrees #vizcayamuseum #vizcayamiami #loveFL
