Sibthorpia

Sibthorpia is a delicate, trailing perennial often found in moist, shaded environments. Its small, rounded leaves and inconspicuous yellow flowers are characteristic, adapting well to the understory of forests. This plant thrives in rich, well-drained soil, benefiting from the protective cover of larger flora, which moderates light exposure and maintains humidity.
