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

It spreads by stolons, forming a compact cushion of short leafy shoots. Flowering stems may be up to 25cm tall, bearing 4-5 white flowers with petals 6-10mm long.

It is found in the west of the British Isles, and in Iceland. It became extinct in England in 1960.^[4] It is usually found by mountain streams, but also grows on cliffs and scree slopes.
