Another good news – liverwort is blooming in the Mikhailovsky Garden. This is a perennial herbaceous plant of the Ranunculaceae family. The flower got its name from its three-lobed leaves, which are shaped like a liver. Medieval healers used liverwort leaves to treat diseases of the liver and gall bladder. Nowadays the plant is not used in medicine. It is found in deciduous forests of Europe and Russia, among trees and shrubs. For this feature, we call the liverwort \u201ccopper.\u201d<\/h4>\n
From the middle of the 15th century, liverwort began to be used in European gardening for spring decoration of flower beds. It was grown in the Moscow royal gardens already in the 17th century.<\/h4>\n
We remind you that the gardens of the Russian Museum will open on May 1.<\/h4>\n
