Scleranthus biflorus, commonly known as cushion plant, is a low-growing, evergreen groundcover native to New Zealand and Australia. It forms dense, bright green, cushion-like mounds that typically reach up to 10 cm in height and can spread up to 50 cm in width. The plant produces small, inconspicuous greenish-white flowers that bloom in the summer. Scleranthus biflorus is frost-hardy and prefers well-drained soils, thriving in full sun to partial shade. It is tolerant of dry conditions but appreciates regular moisture during establishment. This species is often used in rock gardens, between paving stones, or as a ground cover in low-maintenance landscapes.
