Description

Rock Sea-spurrey is a short, sprawling perennial with flowers consisting of five pink and un-notched petals backed by sepals of equal length. Both the stem and leaves are covered by sticky hairs.

Habitat Information

Much more a plant of rocks, cliffs and crevices than the other sea-spurreys but also found on guano enriched soils near sea-bird colonies and the short turf of cliff-tops. Very rarely found far from the sea.

Growing Information

Can be sown at any time of the year.
