True moss is one of the few truly global plants. Mosses reproduce by spores and therefore are not as evolved as seed plants. Their spores are so tiny they rise up into the outer atmosphere traveling around the globe until they set down somewhere else on Earth. So a spore that originates in New England could land in South Africa or Japan.
