Epilobium pedunculare, also known as the rockery willowherb, is a type of plant. It belongs to a group of plants called Epilobium. This plant is quite similar to another species, E. brunnescens. You can find the rockery willowherb growing in several places. These include the Antipodean Islands, Chatham Island, Macquarie Island, and both the North and South Islands of New Zealand.

The rockery willowherb is a small plant. Its leaves are a key feature. Each leaf has small teeth along its edges. These leaves are usually between 4 and 9 millimeters long. This means they are less than a centimeter in length.
Where it Grows
