'''''Cerastium arcticum''''' (''Arctic mouse-ear chickweed'' or ''Arctic mouse-ear'') is a flower distributed at parts of western and southern [[Greenland]], [[Baffin Island]], [[Labrador]], [[Iceland]], [[Scotland]], [[Norway]] and [[Svalbard]].
It grows in tufts, sometimes loosely, generally in damp places and on open gravel. Most of the plant is [[pubescent]], the hairs appearing stiff. Leaves are elliptical. The flowers are white, rather large, beautiful when fully expanded, single or two together. [[Petal]]s deeply notched and considerably longer than [[sepal]]s.
