Default Native moss, Growing strong for over seven months

I collected this moss about seven or eight months ago here in Georgia and it was just a 3x3 square and has really taken off. I use distilled and rain water and nothing else. It only grows good on the cork and on top of leaf litter. I have tried just putting it on a soil and peat mix and bed a beast with no results. I have been able to transport some into another tank and its still doing good in both. Enjoy

Could that be Irish Moss? Does it send off shouts with little white flowers?
