Standard Cyclopedia of Horticulture

Saxifraga spathulata, Desf., also spelled spatulata. Perennial, very densely cespitose, 2 1/2-4 in. high, with short, prostrate, very densely imbricate-foliose caudicles: sts. slender, erect, few-lvd.: lower lvs. spatulate, ciliate, apex obtuse, rarely 3-toothed, 3-nerved; cauline linear: infl. 3-5-fld. corymbose panicles with pedicels longer than the fls. and sparsely glandular as is the calyx: fls. white; calyx-lobes ovate, very obtuse; petals obovate-oblong, twice as long as the calyx-lobes: fr. subglobose. June. N. Afr.—It is doubtful whether this species is hardy in E. U. S. It forms very thick, close mats which are reddish green or brownish with the silver-gray buds of the shoots dotted through. Not very showy, as the panicles are few-fld. CH
