After 4 or 5 days with no rain, they appear dead, but a little rain, green right up

Really need to clean that off. The roots will grow under the shingles and compromise them. 4951

@FoFa, if you have any limbs hanging over the roof you need to have them cut back.  It does help prevent a lot of that kind of thing over timeEmoticonSeems like if you get enough of those, it will just be extra insulation.  lol
 
@Fallon:
 
Extra insulation....perhaps. Definitely will not stop rain from getting into/thru the plywood decking after the shingles lift. 4951

They're known as Resurrection Ferns.  Never seen them on a roof before but they're common on large Live Oaks. 4951

When I first bought my house I had some on my roof before we replaced it. I cleaned them off with a wire grill brush. And then sprayed a little 50/50 bleach water on the area. it seemed to do the trick. 4951

Gosh, I would have cleaned them off before they got that big.  Who wants ferns growing on their roof?  But it does look a little better than the 2 inches of black and green mold on my neighbors garage that I have to look at when I am in my backyard... 4951
