Weird lilly pad looking weeds


Can someone identify this plant, they seem to be everywhere in the garden right now especially between the paving slabs and I've never seen them before.

It's so unusually looking i think it maybe fungus after spraying weed killer.

    Liverwort, *Machantiophyta*. A plant from an ancient lineage. It’s really cool, don’t get rid of it.

    The little cups are called gemmae (singular gemma). They contain small fragments that can grow into new plants, a process called asexual reproduction.

    Definitely liverworts. Please don’t kill or remove them, they help retain moisture and stabilize soils. These guys are ancient and fascinating 🙂

    Ya know how sharks are older than trees? Liverworts are older than sharks.

    You appear to have attracted the attention of Hermaeus Mora. I suggest an offering of spell scrolls and maybe a nice quill.
