About Sagina procumbens L.
Sagina procumbens L. is a perennial, ground-hugging herb that grows in clumps or mats of hairless green foliage, and sometimes resembles a patch of moss vaguely. Its stems root easily at the nodes, which allows the plant to spread widely through vegetative reproduction. The leaves are linear, growing between 1 and 2 centimeters long. Its inflorescence is a single, very small flower that has four or five sepals and four or five tiny white petals; petals are sometimes absent, and the flower has 4 separate stigmas. The fruit is a small capsule that releases black seeds when mature.
