Description
This specimen, identified as Bonfire Liverwort, is a bryophyte featuring a flat, green thallus and distinctive umbrella-shaped reproductive structures. While not a traditional woody bonsai, its upright gametophores could be conceptually aligned with an informal-upright style if viewed as miniature forms. It also displays numerous gemma cups for asexual reproduction.
