Description

The plants are upright, unbranched and unisexual. Their stems are naked, up to 3 cm high, are shiny and have large leaves. Male plants have large, rose-like clusters of leaves at the tip. Female plants have capsules. It is very common on rotting logs, humus and soil over rocks in low- and middle-elevation forests. Indeed, it is the most common species of leafy moss in low-elevation forests. [2]

gollark: What? Oh beeoids (hypermemetic, class τ).
gollark: This doesn't sound entirely maze-y, you just need to do things a bit in advance of the obstacles.
gollark: Ew, is this doing mutable state too? BEE it.
gollark: I mean, I would just do it as a function `u64 -> u64`. I don't see why you would want it to be its own type.
gollark: Why would it be an enum? Do you mean a tuple struct like `struct Collatz(u64)`?
