Harrimanella
Also called Moss Bell Heathers
Harrimanella is a genus of flowering plant in the heath family Ericaceae, with a single species, Harrimanella hypnoides, also known as moss bell heather or moss heather.
H. hypnoides is a cold hardy dicot perennial that produces moss-like cushions, about 5 centimetres (2 inches) high, often of prostrate stems with ascending shoot tips. The leaves are scale-like, looking like those of a moss. Borne singly on short reddish pedicels, the bell-shaped flowers are conspicuous and white with five fused petals and five sepals. The fruit is an erect capsule.
