Resurrection Plant

Selaginella lepidophylla

Origin: Chihuahuan Desert, Mexico & United States

Truly the easiest plant in the world. 

Resurrection plants curl up into a ball when dehydrated to be carried around by the wind until they come across a new water source.

As soon as they encounter one, they unfurl and spring back to life!

A fun little party trick and great for kids, simply setting your resurrection plant in a bowl of water is all it takes to care for them! It's important to allow the plant to dry again fully, to the point of curling up, in order to prevent rot.
