Saxifraga cuneata, commonly known as Wedgeleaf Saxifrage, is an evergreen perennial herb native to the rocky mountainous regions of France and Spain. It typically grows to a height of 0.3-0.7 feet (0.09-0.2 meters) and spreads 0.9-1 feet (0.3-0.3 meters). This plant forms low, cushion-like mats with small, wedge-shaped, green leaves. The white flowers bloom in spring and summer, creating a delicate, frothy appearance that is quite showy against the dark foliage.

Wedgeleaf Saxifrage is valued for its compact growth habit and attractive blooms, making it an excellent choice for rock gardens, alpine troughs, and as ground cover in well-drained areas. It thrives in full sun to part shade and requires medium amounts of water, preferring well-drained soils. While it is not a common garden plant, its ease of care and charming flowers can add interest to specialized garden settings. It is relatively low maintenance but may require protection from slugs and snails, which find its foliage appealing.CC BY-SA 4.0
