Selaginella erythropus 'Sanguinea'

Bathrooms often have low natural light, so it is tough to find plants that will survive such an environment. Consider 'Ruby Red' Club Moss as an option, as it loves the higher bathroom humidity and tolerates the low light well. This is a slow grower, and will thrive in terrariums as well as bathrooms. The red undersides of the leaves add wonderful color to an already attractive plant, and would partner nicely in a container planter with Peperomia. Club moss (aka Spike Moss) is pet-friendly, but one good chomp would probably spell the end of your plant!
Footnote: this variety of selaginella needs shade if grown in the outdoor summer garden, or at best, dappled sun, possibly morning sun. If the leaves begin to scorch, move it to a shadier spot outdoors or bring it inside. Too cold sensitive to live outside during the fall and winter, this club moss may be happier indoors year-round.
