Unfortunately, the article I read (in Spanish, from Mexico), spoke about wild collected plants and sold worldwide...

I will try to find on internet again this article.

What is most stupid is that many plants are cut without their roots so chance to really grow (not rebirth with water and drying without) is very poor.

Selaginella lepidophylla : see links in nture and a comparaison of both stages (dry and wet)
