Organic Sweet Woodruff (1 Gallon)

Organic Sweet Woodruff (1 Gallon)

Fragrant Shade Elegance

(Galium odoratum), a perennial herb revered for its delicate beauty and aromatic charm. This botanical treasure graces shaded garden settings with its lush green foliage and clusters of dainty, white star-shaped flowers.

Native to Europe, this elegant herb has found its way into gardens across the world, thriving in cool and shaded environments. Its ability to carpet the ground with its low-growing, whorled leaves and emit a pleasant, sweet scent has earned it a cherished place among garden enthusiasts and herbalists alike.

Cultivating Organic Sweet Woodruff is a rewarding endeavor. Its preference for well-drained, moist soil and partial to full shade creates an ideal environment for optimal growth. Planting in the spring or fall ensures a sturdy establishment, and a layer of mulch aids in moisture retention.

When it comes to harvesting, the leaves and stems of Sweet Woodruff are best gathered during their peak in late spring to early summer. These parts contain valuable coumarin compounds, which contribute to its subtle fragrance and potential herbal applications. Care should be taken to avoid over-harvesting, ensuring the plant's continued vitality.

Organic Sweet Woodruff stands as a testament to nature's elegance, offering not only visual delight but also the potential for botanical appreciation and usage. Embrace the opportunity to cultivate this enchanting herb and experience its understated grandeur firsthand.

Useful Information

Guarantee

We guarantee the perishable items we sell to be in good, viable condition when we sell them. Perishable items include, but are not limited to, garlic bulbs, flower bulbs, seed potatoes, onion sets & transplants, potted or bare root trees, vegetable crowns, etc. If your perishable item arrives in substandard condition, take photographs and please contact us within 3 days of the purchase date (or delivery date) and we will provide you with a refund of the purchase price (excluding shipping costs), or a replacement. Accordingly, we urge you to open any boxes marked as ""Perishable"" immediately upon receiving them and inspect the shipment thoroughly (do not crack open heads of garlic, we do not accept claims on cracked garlic). Because some perishable items can deteriorate very quickly, we cannot accept any claims beyond the 3-day time frame as it becomes too difficult to determine if these items were delivered in substandard condition, or if they turned into such substandard condition because of having been improperly cared for or stored once delivered.
