Types of Kernera

Rock scurvy grass

Rock scurvy grass (Kernera saxatilis) is an elegant and thin-stemmed plant that grows in crevices and rocky mountain areas. Springtime is the best season to identify rock scurvy grass, as this is when it produces clusters of lovely white flowers. It is occasionally grown ornamentally and makes a modestly attractive addition to rock gardens. The genus name, Kernera, refers to Johann Simon von Kerner, who was a famous German botanical illustrator.
