Nowellia

Nowellia is a distinctive type of liverwort, notable for its lush, green, lobed leaves that form dense mats on the forest floor. These mats are crucial for nowellia's survival, helping retain moisture in its habitat. The plant thrives in damp, shaded environments, often clinging to the sides of logs or other decaying wood, which provides vital nutrients for growth.
