Bering Chickweed

Cerastium beeringianum

Overview

Bering Chickweed (Cerastium beeringianum) is a low-growing, hairy perennial plant native to the maritime regions of North America, with specific regions in Alaska and Siberia. With delicate white flowers, the species often grows in dense mats, capable of withstanding harsh Arctic conditions. They are a key food source for many grazing animals in the North. Its overall hardy nature makes it very tolerant of varying salinity levels found in tidal zones. Bering Chickweed is perfect for temperate gardens, bringing a special touch of the Arctic outdoors.
