Bronze Moss

This orange-yellow or bronze moss is commonly found growing in large clumps On trees, On rotten logs, and In rainy mountain ranges.
It is short, growing up to 1 inch (3 cm) tall. It forms in thin clumps and they are exceptionally hardy, and is extremely light; it struggles more than most during dry spells.
When mature, emerald V-shaped capsules grow at the end of short, lime green sporophytes, eventually opening up during the mid-summer to release dozens of spores; it can cause allergic reactions.
