Navelwort
Umbilicus rupestris
''Umbilicus rupestris'' is a fleshy, perennial, edible flowering plant in the stonecrop family Crassulaceae so named for its umbilicate leaves.
Wall pennywort grows to an average of 25 cm high. The pallid spikes of bell-shaped, greenish-pink flowers of this plant first appear in May, and the green fruits ripen through the summer.
Both the name "navelwort" and the scientific name ''Umbilicus'' come from the round shape of the leaves, which have a navel-like depression in the center.
