Alsine Trinervia

Alsine trinervia, commonly known as the three-veined sandwort, is a small flowering plant native to arid and semi-arid regions of North America. It thrives in sandy and gravelly soils, often found in desert environments where water is scarce. This hardy species has adapted to extreme conditions with its compact growth form and efficient water use strategies. Its delicate pink or white flowers bloom in early spring, adding a touch of color to the otherwise barren landscape. Despite its modest appearance, Alsine trinervia plays an important ecological role in stabilizing soil and supporting local wildlife.
