Pratia angulata (commonly called star creeper) is a low-growing, spreading perennial native to New Zealand and Australia. It forms a dense mat of tiny rounded leaves and produces masses of small, five-petaled white star-shaped flowers from spring through summer and even into autumn. Ideal as a lawn alternative, between pavers, or as a groundcover in rock and cottage gardens, it prefers moist, well-drained soil and part shade to full sun. Pratia angulata is hardy, low-maintenance, tolerates light foot traffic, and self-spreads to fill gaps, creating a soft, carpet-like effect.
