Eremogone

Eremogone is characterized by its dense tufts of narrow leaves and robust, branching stems that culminate in star-shaped white flowers. Thriving in alpine and arid conditions, this plant exhibits a rugged adaptability to rocky, nutrient-poor soils which helps it to stand out in its harsh native habitats. The delicate blossoms contrast sharply with its tough, wiry foliage, making it both hardy and visually striking.
