| | | ab301- new to wild about britain
Just a quick hello, as im a newbie.
there's some great photos on here and interesting discussions that i've seen so far.
Im interested to know if anybody knows anything much about mosses.....
I decided to do a uni project on them as I didn't really know that much about moss, but am now having a bit of trouble with identification. If anyone can help i'd be really grateful.
Well, ill go back to looking at all the amazing photos now
thanx! |

Welcome to WAB ab301. Glad to hear that you like what is happening here. 'Fraid my knowledge of mosses is nil. Suppose it is another thing I could find out about, if I ever get time.

Hello AB301,what do you need to know about mosses?they are related to lichens,there are 3-4 classifications,they like damp places but survive drought
they are a foothold to breakdown rocks they like my north facing lawn
Seriously there are people on the site that know but a specific query would help welcome to WAB
