Leptinella dioica, commonly known as hairless leptinella, is a mat-forming groundcover endemic to New Zealand. It features creeping, somewhat fleshy rhizomes and small, finely divided, fern-like green leaves that may exhibit bronze tinges in full sun. In summer, it produces solitary, yellow button-like flowers. This plant typically reaches a height of about 0.2m and can spread up to 1 meter, forming a dense ground cover. It is well-suited for use as a ground cover in gardens, particularly under trees or in shaded areas, and can also be planted in pots for a trailing effect. Additionally, it is adaptable to coastal conditions and can tolerate moist to wet soils.
