Pearlwort is a dense low growing dicot weed with smooth slender stems rooting at the nodes with oppositely arranged, thin grassy like leaves up to 14mm long. The heavily branched stems form a mat-like growth habit that forms thick ground cover.

Small flowers appear in spring, summer and autumn and are a small, inconspicuous flower with green sepals and tiny white petals. Flowers remain closed in bud and bloom briefly. Pearlwort is propagated mainly through seed but can also grow from vegetative parts.
