This low-growing plant adds a soft, lush texture to any indoor space, making it a popular choice for terrariums, hanging baskets, or as ground cover in potted arrangements. Native to the Mediterranean region, 'Baby's Tear' typically grows up to 2-4 inches tall, making it an excellent choice for plant enthusiasts who appreciate fine, detailed foliage.
