Thlaspi rotundifolium

Thlaspi rotundifolium is a hardy annual flowering plant in the cabbage family Brassicaceae capable of surviving in arctic conditions. Though often placed in the valid genus Thlaspi,[1] it is occasionally placed in the problematic genus Noccaea. It has been sold for cultivation in rock gardens.[2]

Description

The plant has a basal rosette out of which grows one or several short, unbranched stems that have small, rounded leaves and end in dense racemes of small pink flowers.[3]
