I can see why people are suck in for it. I cropped a bit of it.
Pearlwort is a very small weed. In my picture it's growing among moss
between paving stones; if you're standing up the moss looks like bright
green velvet.
Despite its size pearlwort's a serious nuisance in sports pitches,
lawns, rockeries, paving and ecologically-sensitive islands. It resists
weedkillers drought and grazing. You can find it all over the northern
hemisphere and on eBay - don't buy it.
