Pearl Grass
Hemianthus micranthemoides
Family: Linderniaceae
A popular stem plant producing tiny, round, bright green leaves in whorls of three to four, creating a fine-textured, dense appearance. It can be grown as a mid-ground bush or as a foreground carpet with regular trimming. Easier to maintain than HC Cuba but provides a similar compact, fine-leaved look.
