It lacks vascular tissue. Vascular tissue is what pumps the water from the roots to the top of the plant. Because moss has no vascular tissue and no formal root system it has to be small enough to conserve water and make it easy for water to reach the entire plant
True mosses generally grow taller than club mosses. True mosses, also known as Bryophyta, have a simple leafy structure and can grow up to several inches tall. In contrast, club mosses, also known as Lycopodiophyta, have a more complex vascular structure and usually grow lower to the ground, forming dense carpets or small clusters.
The limiting factor for sun-loving mosses as taller plants grow during succession would likely be reduced light availability. As taller plants shade the ground below them, the mosses may receive less sunlight, causing them to struggle to photosynthesize and grow. This reduced light can hinder the mosses' ability to compete with the taller plants for resources.
Mosses grow from special cells called rhizomes. The rhizomes are the ones that will produce rhizoids which stems will grow from.
Mosses are anchored to the ground by small hair-like structures called rhizoids. These structures help to stabilize the moss and absorb water and nutrients from the environment.
Three examples of nonvascular plants are mosses, liverworts, and hornworts. These plants lack specialized tissues for transporting water and nutrients, so they are typically small and grow close to the ground in moist environments. Nonvascular plants reproduce through spores rather than seeds.
Mosses grow low to the ground because that is where the environment is best for them. They are able to get water from the soil below them. They absorb it from the ground.

In contrast, club mosses, also known as Lycopodiophyta, have a more complex vascular structure and usually grow lower to the ground, forming dense carpets or small clusters.
Plants that typically grow lowest to the ground include mosses, lichens, ground cover plants like creeping thyme or phlox, and some succulents like hens and chicks. These plants are adapted to thrive in low-light and low-water conditions, allowing them to hug the ground and efficiently absorb nutrients.
Mosses and liverworts usually grow in damp and shaded areas, such as forests, along streams, in bogs, or on rocks and tree bark. They thrive in environments with high humidity and low light levels.
Mosses are non-vascular plants that often grow in dense carpets. They can form lush carpets in various habitats, providing ground cover and helping to retain moisture. Mosses do not have true roots, stems, or leaves.
No, mosses are nonvascular plants and cannot grow more than a few centimeters tall.

mosses do not grow o oil palm trees, it is not the right conitions for the moss
Plnats grow on rocks like lichens and mosses.
