Sagina subulata (Irish Moss)

Sagina subulata (Irish Moss) is a lush, low-growing ground cover that forms a dense carpet of soft, emerald-green foliage. This moss-like perennial produces tiny, star-shaped white flowers in late spring to early summer, adding a delicate charm to rock gardens, pathways, and borders. Thriving in moist, well-draining soil, Irish Moss is perfect for filling in gaps between stepping stones or as a lawn alternative in small areas. Its compact, spreading habit makes it an excellent choice for creating a velvety, evergreen mat of greenery with minimal maintenance.
