A very low growing species of evergreen perennial with glossy spoon-shaped leaves held on thin stems to a height of around 1 cm high. The plant tends to make hummocks of growth before spreading outwards, making dense mats. Flowers are borne on short stems and are solitary although many are produced. Each is a blue colour and quite fluffy, lasting for around 10 days each. The smallest Globularia we offer.
