CaryophyllaceaeSagina procumbensNorthern Pearlwort, Bird's-eye, Perennial PearlwortDisturbed soils.Native of Eurasia (or, perhaps, also ne. North America). Crow (1978) questioned whether S. procumbens is native at all in the Western Hemisphere. In North America, it is concentrated in two main regions, from NS and QC south to MD, and from sw. BC south to c. CA, with scattered occurrences elsewhere, such as around the Great Lakes, CO, AR, s. OH, and w. NC. Whether or not the species is native in the New World, the occurrence in NC (in a gravel parking lot on top of Roan Mountain) is almost certainly adventive.image of plant
