Mosses and the related liverworts belong to the bryophyte group of plants. They are simple plants with no developed vascular system, normally found in wet places. There are a number of species in the Cumberland Plain woodland at Mount Annan Botanic Garden. They grow on soil surfaces and are generally conspicuous in cool wet weather.
