My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Moss, Ferns & Cryptogams

Can you identify this moss?

Hi. This is probably the moss that Moss Beach, CA was named after, and it occurs everywhere here. Can anyone provide a name for this type of moss? It drapes all over the cypress trees by the coast.

thanks!

(^^^here it is growing alongside mushrooms, which could also use identification) :)
