Not common; on the beach and in birds’ islets. The tufts are 
as a rule small (diameter of up to 5 ctm.) with very short and 
short jointed stems creeping closely to the ground, but in manured 
places and in good shelter they may become up to 30ctm. in 
diameter. In shade of rocks or algae washed ashore it becomes 
stretched stem joints (until 3 ctm.) and large leaves (until 12 mm.); 
but on sand and oozy flats it is utterly small-leaved. Flowers rather 
sparingly in July, sets ripe fruit.

Widely distributed in humid places, as well on the coast as 
in the interior and high up in the mountains, but thrives best on 
the coast and is fond of the manured spots round Greenland 
tent and dwelling places, where it often forms a dense cover and 
colours the ground white with its numerous flowers (diameter of 
until 15 mm.); sets abundant ripe fruit.
