Lycopodium lucidulum, how long?

See September 4, 1853 ("The lycopodium now sheds its pollen commonly."); October 12, 1859 ("Now for lycopodiums . . . — how vivid a green ! — lifting their heads above the moist fallen leaves."); October 17, 1857 ("The Lycopodium lucidulum looks suddenly greener amid the withered leaves."); November 27, 1853 ("I observe the Lycopodium lucidulum still of .a fresh, shining green."); December 7, 1853 ("L. lucidulum of the swamps, forming broad, thick patches of a clear liquid green ").
