Woodruff (Gallium odoratum)

[littlecitygarden]

Galium odoratum. Sweet woodruff. This is a lovely little groundcover that tolerates shade (it's natural setting is in the woods). It has little fragrance when it's green, but it'll knock your socks off when dried. Apparently, this is due to a high concentration of coumarin. It's the traditional flavoring for may wine and also historically used in brewing beer (mumm) before we got to the all hops all the time of today.
