I found this liverwort growing up against some landscaping bricks at my house. I’ve taken thousands of pictures of moss, but this is the only wild liverwort I’ve seen

I don’t know if saying something is cool moves beyond the appropriate dullness, but… it’s cool

I like taking pictures of moss and it’s relatives because it forces you to slow down and look at very small details, and there’s a whole world of complexity right under our feet, you just have to look for it

    Oh, I should have mentioned that the majority of it is growing on rubber mulch, which I found interesting when it started.

    There is also a lot growing in the gap I clear next to the rocks bordering the stonecrop and that is growing on bare earth. You can see that in the 2nd photo, to the right of the row of rocks.

    Something else to note is that this is on the north side of the house and gets full sun from midday on.
