Aneura

Aneura is a group of liverworts, typically small in size, found thriving in moist, shaded environments. Distinguished by their flat, ribbon-like green bodies, they often form dense mats on the soil or bark of trees. These terrestrial liverworts absorb water and nutrients across their surface, making them sensitive indicators of ecological health and soil moisture.

Care Guide for Aneura

Propagation: Aneura propagates primarily through division and spores. Essential for success are consistent moisture, moderate light, and well-drained, organic-rich soil. High humidity aids growth, achievable via humidity trays. Propagation occurs during active growth; ensure divisions have roots and lightly distribute spores on moist soil to germinate.
