'''''Sagina''''' (like ''[[Colobanthus]]'' called '''"pearlworts"''') is a genus of 20–30 species of [[flowering plant]]s in the family [[Caryophyllaceae]]. These are flowering herbs native to temperate regions of the [[Northern Hemisphere]] extending south to [[tropical]] [[mountain]] areas at high altitudes, reaching just south of the [[equator]] in [[Africa]]. They are small [[annual plant|annual]] or [[perennial plant|perennial]] [[herbaceous]] plants, erect or prostrate, growing to 5–15 cm tall or broad. The [[leaf|leaves]] are opposite, often in tight whorl-like clusters, simple linear, typically 5–20 mm long. The [[flower]]s are solitary or in small [[Cyme (botany)|cymes]], with five green sepals and five white petals; the petal size relative to the sepal size is useful in species identification. The [[fruit]] is a small [[capsule (fruit)|capsule]] containing several [[seed]]s.<ref name=rhs>Huxley, A., ed. (1992). ''New RHS Dictionary of Gardening''.
