'Tis the season--What have you got blooming?

Not a bloom, but I thought these pictures could be posted here.
These are the sporing bodies of the liverwort Riccardia. I've been keeping these in my terrariums for awhile now, but I have never seen them spore.
So, I thought I would share. It is a very tiny plant, much like a moss.

That is creepy looking. Neat!

That is too cool, and well within the rules of the thread! Anything that blooms or spores inside your vivarium, hehe.

Glad you 2 like it. It is a bit Belle Laid.

Can you tell me where you got this? I am very interested in Liverworts and want to get some of this one or any other species.

Riccia is commonly available via the fish hobby and even offered by some of the sponsors here... but tends to be in limited supply since it's so popular
