This shade-loving, beautifully textured ground cover is an excellent lawn replacement. Sweet Woodruff thrives in shady conditions that most lawn grasses don't like, forming a dense, weed-resistant canopy of leaves. Blooming for a few weeks in late spring with sprays of tiny white flowers, the plant is most appreciated for its ornamental foliage. It will tolerate more heat if irrigated regularly during drought periods.
