Both trees have unusually high rates of foliar mineral leaching (calcium, magnesium, potassium, and phosphorus.) Again, the moss doesn’t draw these nutrients from the trees through their roots but will absorb these minerals with its trichrome when it rains. Here in the US it seems to prefer both the Southern Live Oak and Bald Cypress trees. These trichomes are used to collect and absorb the nutrients it needs to survive. Living up in trees give it the perfect vantage point to collect water, fog, dust and debris with its fuzzy hair like trichomes. Like other air plants, Spanish Moss collects nutrients from the air and not the plants on which it grows.
