A close look at the distinctive, bristly texture of a Pincushion Moss (Leucobryum species) found near Lake Trail at Fort Boggy State Park. While often casually identified as Leucobryum glaucum, this is almost certainly its southern sister species, Leucobryum albidum (White Pincushion Moss), which is much more common in East Texas. The moss gets its pale, frosted-green color from a unique leaf structure: the outer layers consist of large, clear, hollow cells that hide the green chlorophyll beneath. When it rains, these empty cells fill with water and turn the cushion bright green; when dry, they fill with air, giving the plant a silvery-white appearance. Fort Boggy State Park.
