Close-up of a Frullania species of leafy liverwort on yellow birch bark in Connecticut. A fascinating part of the landscape, especially in winter and early spring before most plants re-grow. Liverwort is a primitive plant that undergoes photosynthesis but lacks roots and a vascular system. Structures called rhizoids enable liverworts to stick to the surface of trees, rocks and soil. They reproduce via spores. Liverworts began developing on earth about 470 million years ago. Epiphytic liverworts do not harm trees.
