Lichens growing on trees and shrubs are mainly grey to green in colour. They may form as crusty patches, leafy mats, or upright branching or hanging growths on the bark or wood. Algae, lichens and moss are non-parasitic plant-like organisms that colonise bark, rock and other hard surfaces. Lichens and algae are often mistaken for a fungal disease but, fortunately, they do not harm plants on which they grow. Furthermore, they can give a mature look to a garden, preferring damp areas with minimal air movement. #botany #lichen #sheildlichen #biodiversity #himalayanplants🌺 #treelichen #herbaceousplants #plants #bioindicatorofsulpherpollution #himachal #indianflora (at Bijli Mahadev Temple) https://www.instagram.com/himalayan_plants/p/ByOsHGWh3pm/?igshid=l4tal761mp4s
