This species ranges from the mountains of Spain to Corsica, Sardinia, and Slovenia, from the Apennines to the Alps. It grows in rocky and stony places, on dry slopes, and in forests (especially pine forests). It prefers calcareous soils, at an altitude of up to 1,500 meters, rarely up to 2,400 meters.
Reaching a height of 10–40 centimeters, the stem is prostrate to ascending, woody, reddish, quite hairy, and very branched. The leaves are ovate to lanceolate, sessile, and hairy, 1–3 cm long. The five-petalled flowers are arranged in groups at the ends of branches. They have red or pink (rarely white) petals and blue anthers
