‘Woodruff’ is a carpeting perennial for part shade, under trees or shrubs. It bears whorls of star-shaped white flowers above neat green leaves all summer. All parts of the plant are aromatic. Native and evergreen with us. Woodruff is a strongly scented plant, the sweet scent being derived from coumarin.This scent increases on wilting and then persists on drying so woodruff can eb used in pot-pourri and as a moth deterrent.

Customer Comments!

I just wanted to say that my order arrived safely and promptly. I was very impressed by the quality of the packing and also the healthy look of all the plants. I have bought mail order/on-line from other companies and yours is by far the most efficient and professional, many others arriving completely scrunched up and dried out - thank you.
