Vesicularia ferriei 'Weeping', commonly known as Weeping Moss, is believed to have originated in China and has been distributed by Oriental Aquarium Plants. 'Weeping' is a fleshy, 1-3 cm high hanging moss with drop-like light green shoots.

It is best attached to driftwood or roots, as its hanging growth pattern helps create depth and contrast in the aquarium. 'Weeping' has low requirements, grows quickly and should be pruned frequently with scissors to maintain an attractive shape.
