It's a common aquatic moss, and yes all has "bloomed" that is why I have so much
The spores spread everywhere. I think it's called Java moss. Check out this sequence to illustrate growth:

The things sticking out are the fruiting bodies/"flowers". This stuff thrives and spreads in moist to wet terrariums and Wardian Cases like mine. Where it comes from is anyone's guess. It's home here is 99% humidity and 1500+ foot candles and fertilized ever-other-day. Misting is every 4-5 hours automatically.

Vivarium Forum for Java Moss.

I don't do most Dendros or large, "floofy orchids". For me it's minis (like Angraecoides), Masdies, Paphs, and others that crept in somewhere along the line. See my orchid list for complete collection (usually not current.)
