Cerastium Fontanum Var. Lucens

Snowy chickweed, scientifically known as Cerastium fontanum var. lucens, is a delicate flowering plant native to cool, moist environments in Europe and parts of Asia. This low-growing species is characterized by its pale green leaves and small white flowers that bloom in early spring. It thrives in shaded areas such as woodland floors and garden beds, making it a popular choice for ground cover. Despite its modest appearance, snowy chickweed plays an important role in supporting local pollinators and maintaining ecological balance. Its unique beauty and hardy nature make it a valuable addition to both wild and cultivated landscapes.
