Saxifraga rosacea, Irish saxifrage, or rosy saxifrage, is a herbaceous plant in the family Saxifragaceae.

The epithet rosacea does not refer to its flowers which are white,[1] but to its radical sterile shoots which are often rosy.

It spreads by stolons, forming a compact cushion of short leafy sterile shoots.

[3][5][6] It was believed to have become extinct in the UK in 1962, but cuttings from original specimens have allowed for its reintroduction in 2024.

[7] It is usually found by mountain streams, but also grows on cliffs and scree slopes.
