Lyallia kerguelensis, also known as the lyallia cushion, is a unique flowering plant that belongs to the monotypic genus Lyallia in the Montiaceae family. It is sometimes classified under the Hectorellaceae or Portulacaceae families. The genus name is a tribute to British botanist and naval officer David Lyall, who was part of an Antarctic expedition in the 1800s. The specific epithet refers to the location where the type material was collected. This perennial herb forms round cushions that can range from 200-400mm in diameter, with some reaching up to 1m. Its closest relative is the Hectorella caespitosa, found in alpine areas of New Zealand. Lyallia kerguelensis is endemic to the subantarctic Kerguelen Islands in the southern Indian Ocean and can be found in small populations on moraines and fellfields, at elevations of up to 300m. It has a lifespan of at least 16 years.
