Acaena microphylla (New Zealand Burr)

Acaena microphylla, commonly known as New Zealand Burr, is a low-growing perennial plant native to New Zealand. It forms dense mats of small, round, dark green leaves that have a spiky appearance, resembling a burr. In summer, it produces tiny, inconspicuous, greenish flowers that are followed by small, burr-like seeds that cling to clothing or animal fur. New Zealand Burr is a hardy plant that thrives in well-draining soil and is often used as a ground cover.
