Limonium tetragonum, the square-stalked sea lavender, is a species of flowering plant in the family Plumbaginaceae.[2][1] It is native to Primorsky Krai in Russia, South Korea, central and southern Japan, the northern Ryukyu Islands, and New Caledonia some 6,800 km (4,200 mi) away.[1] A biennial halophyte, it can be found growing at the high tide line in coastal wetlands and in salt marshes.[1][3][4] It is collected in the wild and eaten as a vegetable, and is considered to have medicinal properties.[4] There appears to be an ornamental cultivar, 'Confetti'.[5]
