Purple Saxifraga

(Saxifraga oppositifolia)

Nunavut's purple saxifrage grows very well in cool weather. It is a small, bright-purple flower that grows like a mat over rocks and gravel. It can be found growing all over Nunavut, home of the inuit. This is why the territory chose the purple Saxifaga as its floral emblem in 2000.
