A small, grass-like evergreen shrub of the family Prunaceae, densely packed together to form a carpet. It is widely distributed in high mountains in the Northern Hemisphere, and in Japan it grows on rocky ground in the alpine zone from central Honshu northward. It produces white flowers similar to those of plum trees in July. It has five petals, but the base is shallowly bell-shaped.
