Description

A low growing, mat forming native with needle like, but soft leaves. The white flowers are small but profuse and are produced in late spring/early summer. I find it likes some moisture or coolness while staying well drained in order to be at its best, but it can be in part shade to full sun depending on how the other needs are met. It can make a wonderful groundcover, especially interplanted with taller natives that can help keep the ground cooler or in a rock garden. If one were to keep it “pruned” it would also do well in a faerie garden.
