Galium odoratum
Galium odoratum, commonly known as Sweet Woodruff, is a charming, low-growing perennial valued for its whorls of fresh green foliage and delicate clusters of star-shaped white flowers in spring. It forms a soft, carpet-like ground cover, ideal for shaded areas.
Perfect for woodland gardens and beneath trees or shrubs, it thrives in moist, well-drained soil and spreads gently to create a naturalistic effect. The foliage is lightly fragrant, especially when crushed or dried, adding an extra sensory element to planting schemes.
