In search of tiny plants!
 
Looking for very small, very light plants, nothing over 1 inch in height or
width at maturity, or very light mosses. Any and all suggestions very
welcome. Beauty is important but not necessary. Must be able to grow these
plants hydroponically in styrofoam.

If anyone knows of an online source that arranges plant life by height and
weight (accurately speaking, most sites are very, very wide ranging in what
they consider to be a 'small plant'), I would be incredibly grateful. Are
there any e-Businesses that specialize in wee, teeny plants?

Do a web search for rock garden plants. Many can grow in a regular
garden setting, and most are quite small.

You mean like some of those cute runty little cati? I think they are
very pretty and hardy and amazing when they flower. and often they
are short about one inch and they grow in a tiny terra pot that is a
simular hight
just curious what do you need these for any way?
