This vigorous, mat-forming perennial groundcover has a spreading habit, making it ideal for filling in gaps and controlling erosion in garden spaces. Hardy in USDA Zones 3-9, it thrives in full sun to partial shade and prefers moist, well-drained soils, though it can tolerate wetter conditions. Its small, round leaves remain green through most of the year, sometimes developing slight yellowish tinges in the fall. In late spring to early summer, it produces charming, bright yellow, cup-shaped flowers that add a cheerful burst of color to the landscape. This plant grows low to the ground, reaching a height of 2-4 inches, with its spreading habit covering considerable ground. Deer-resistant and adaptable, it’s a great choice for use in rock gardens, as a border plant, or as a lawn alternative in proper conditions.
