Description

Intermediate navelwort grows to an average of 25 cm (10 in) high. The palid spikes of bell-shaped, greenish-pink flowers of this plant first appear between March and June. The plant grows on shady walls or in damp rock crevices that are sparse in other plant growth, where its succulent leaves develop in rosettes. The leaves, when boiled, are said to help urinary tract infections.
