At the base of one unsuccessful cutting

earth - no stem. The 'leaves' feel rubbery, and each of them has two
large
pores, like eyes, growing near the leaf edge furthest from the middle

Thanks so much! You're absolutely right, it's a liverwort - and I think it's
wonderful! Has to be one of the strangest plants I've come across - think
I'll leave it alone and see how big it gets!

Thanks again!

Jo (though I sort of wish it had been an alien!)
