Won't load for me either. The address says it is a clip from the Green Planet which many of us in the UK have seen, maybe try describing it if the link can't be fixed?

Thanks for reposting the link, I can’t seem to open mine aswell after posting.

I wanted to know what species this plant is?

Looks like a moss (on rocks) to me, @dw1305 is the oracle though....Latin an all that malarkey.

Looks like a moss

I wonder if its Heteranthera zosterifolia?

In the introduction to the above scene he mentions star grasses.

 

[dw1305]

Hi all,

Latin an all that malarkey.

I wonder if its Heteranthera zosterifolia?

<"Heteranthera zosterifolia"> would be my guess as well. We have a thread with pictures of it <"in the Pantanal">.

He said Star Grass and that's a Heteranthera

Cheers, guys.
