Rupturewort Herniaria Glabra

Rupturewort (Herniaria glabra) is a low-growing, spreading groundcover known for its tiny green foliage that forms a dense, carpet-like mat. It is often used as a lawn alternative, between stepping stones, or in rock gardens due to its durability and low profile. This deer-resistant evergreen is full of tiny leaves that create a dense evergreen carpet, which turns bronze in the winter. Rupturewort also displays small green flowers that appear early in the summer. These plants are easy to care for, make a great ground cover, and grow well in containers. 

Thrives in full sun to partial shade and prefers well-draining soil. This is a low maintenance, drought tolerant, and fast spreading groundcover ideal for tough, dry areas.

Maintenance Tip:
Water regularly during establishment, then reduce watering significantly once established. Lightly trim if it spreads beyond its desired area. Avoid heavy fertilizing, and ensure good drainage to maintain plant health.
