Chironia linoides

Chironia linoides is a slender perennial herb that typically thrives in sandy or rocky environments. It stands out with its linear, grass-like leaves and delicate pink to white star-shaped flowers, which are particularly resplendent in summer. This toughness allows chironia linoides to endure in sparse, well-drained soils where other plants may struggle.
