This is real BC coastal lichen with authentic color, form, and character — perfect for anyone looking to add genuine natural detail to their terrarium, habitat, or craft project.

Please note: The lichen at our nursery is growing outdoors and may contain pine needles, small twigs or other leaf Debris and mosses.

The lichen is not sterilized or dyed and may contain the odd small other moss, spore, seeds or detritus eating organisms such as springtails.

Your order will be dried and enclosed in a sealed bag, ensuring the lichen remains alive during transit. Your lichen will be gently compressed for delivery but it will regain its natural shape once it has been transferred to a suitable container.

When you receive your new lichen please remove from the bag and place in a glass jar or terrarium to allow it to breathe. Mist fresh moss generously.

lichen prefers indirect, diffused natural light but will do well with artificial light and the right humidity.
