| Hello, I've had my white pine bonsai for almost a year now. Recently my moss has grown these flat sorta clover/lilly looking weeds. I have only tried to weed them and have been unsuccessful as they are firmly attached and take the moss right up with them. I just moved last week and it is a little hotter where I am now, so maybe my watering may be off. But is there anyone that can tell me what these are and maybe how to get rid of them? Thank you.
Here is a link to a picture:

| No idea what they are but why not just replace the moss? Beautiful tree by the way, nice work! |

| The weed is 'liverwort'. There are more than 6,000 species. If you have it growing on the soil of a pine, you have more trouble than just the weeds. They only grow on wet/over-watered, and usually compacted soils. Al |
