Dryas octopetala: Commonly known as Mountain Avens; is an arctic-alpine flowering plant in the family Rosaceae. It is a small prostrate evergreen sub-shrub forming large colonies, and is a popular flower in rock gardens. The specific epithet octopetala derives from the Greek octo (eight) and petalon (petal), referring to the eight petals of the flower, an unusual number in the Rosaceae, where five is the normal number. However flowers with up to 16 petals also occur naturally.
