LEPTINELLA s. Platt's Black

This cute little groundcover has evergreen fern-like, dark purple leaves that provide a unique texture to the garden. Yellow button-like flowers are borne on short stalks in late spring, hence the name brass buttons. Great to use in walkways, between stepping stones, or just along the front of the border.
