Pink ear is an evergreen groundcover that typically grows 2 to 6 inches (5 to 15 cm) tall, spreading via rooting stems. The leaves are glossy green, slightly succulent, about an inch (2.5 cm) wide, with a unique cupped shape and upright orientation, giving them an ear-like appearance. Abundant white flowers tinged with light pink span about half an inch (1.27 cm) across and bloom in spring through early summer. This plant prefers well-draining soils and tolerates a range of sunlight from full to partial shade.
