Hi



Can anyone give me the Latin name for Sea Moss, the dried plant that is used to make model trees please? I think Greenscenes sell it, but I can't find out the Latin name which I need for another purpose!



Many thanks.

Well, there is also Seafoam, (Teloxys Aristata) which is also used to make trees - just bought some seeds myself and need to figure out how to grow them. So if anyone has done this before, how about a couple of growing tips?

I thought it had as well, but my personal group archive didn't turn it up. I tried Google Groups with the Latin name and have found a thread in November 2004 which helps big time.

Thanks again.

I will try myself and see what happens!
