Fresh Wild Harvested British Soldier Lichen
from our private woodland property in Maine.

Open the bag and experience these amazing little gems that will never fail to make you appreciate the sheer brilliance of nature.

We love hunting for these little guys. Harvested in small batches, it takes a keen eye to spot these in the wild. They look a bit like tiny red flowers with their bluish-green stalk and bright red "caps". Typically around. 1/4" to 1" tall, they are found in the hidden corners of the forest. At the base of an old fallen tree, under the leaves on the slope of a rocky hill or sprouting from a tuft of moss, finding them always feels like finding buried treasure.

Lichen have been around for more than 400 million years and are truly fascinating. Simultaneously an algae AND a fungi, they are uniquely adapted to surviving harsh conditions.

You will receive sections of beautiful British Soldier lichen attached to the substrate on which it was found. This could be soil, bark, twigs, moss or even stone. They arrive in a 4"x6" ziplock and bring an awesome splash of color to any terrarium.

They don't need watering very frequently, but when you do water them, the color really pops!
