Also keep an eye on our Articles section. For the time being, if you are unfamiliar with identifying the plants, you can still admire them and learn to spot different species just by their colour, leaf arrangement and habitat. My advice last month about always carrying a hand lens will be well-heeded this month. Try and pick a local walk where it will be damp - one where there is a stream valley, stone walls facing north, dense woodland etc. Start examining with the lens those patches of green at the bases of trees, amongst the leaf litter and clinging to stone walls.
Some species prefer calcium-rich habitats such as concrete slabs and the mortar in walls.
Examine the tops of wet tree stumps, which often have a superb growth of mosses. If near a stream, look at the bank just above the water level. There will be a higher humidity maintained here and should provide a wealth of mosses and perhaps liverworts. Much of the enjoyment of these plants can be experienced during the walk. Hold a stem of a moss up to the light, and examine under the lens.
