Arenaria livermorensis is a perennial herb growing close to the ground and forming a mat, rather resembling moss. Stems can attain a length of 4 cm. The leaves are needle-like, narrow and rigid, up to 6 mm long, hairless but with peg-like cilia along the margins, green and shiny. The flowers are solitary in the axils of the leaves, with green sepals and no petals.
