Woodruff, Sweet

Galium odoratum (Woodruff, Sweet)
Galium odoratum

One of the most unique and delightful herbs, Sweet Woodruff is a superb ornamental plant. Unlike most herbs, it thrives in the shade and makes one of the most beautiful ground covers under trees and in other protected areas. It has distinctive glossy star-shaped clusters of leaves that ring out from a central stem, and tiny, lacy white flowers with a vanilla scent. It has been used to make spring wine.
