Androsace nivalis is a species of flowering plant in the primrose family Primulaceae with the common name snow dwarf-primrose.
[2] Androsace nivalis forms low clumps to extended mats with small dentate (sometimes entire) broadly lanceolate to linear leaves arranged in rosettes.
Leaf surfaces and flower stems are covered with short stellate or branched hairs.
Flower stems arise from leaf axils and give rise to small terminal clusters.
[3] Androsace nivalis is endemic to the Wenatchee Mountains in Washington state and nearby areas.
