Bryophyte Coral

Japanese: コケサンゴ
Bryophyte Coral
Also known as coral moss or tamarisk. A perennial plant of the Rubiaceae family native to Central and South America, New Zealand, and Tasmania. It is used for decoration because of its beautiful, globular, orange-red fruits, about 6 mm in diameter. The stems crawl along the ground and the small leaves grow densely, forming a moss-like structure. The flowers are green and inconspicuous, but the fruits do not fall off from summer to winter.
