Androsace lactea, the milkwhite rock jasmine, is an alpine plant, in the family Primulaceae.
Its northern slopes are known, due to their inaccessibility, for its alpine flora, particularly the protected edelweiss.
The mountains are rich in flora with about 25% of the country's plant species being found above the treeline in alpine plant habitats and grassland with mountain beech forest at lower elevations (of the eastern side but not in Westland).
The idea to monitor alpine plant communities was first discussed in 1996 during a workshop in Kathmandu.
