Catherine's Garden

[Catherine]

If you like the Hazels then keep them. A shade garden is beautiful. Forget the grass and find some shade loving ground cover that you can walk on. Periwinkle and sweet woodruff like shade. Sweet woodruff is a great little plant. It spreads and covers the ground in shady areas.. It has small white flowers in the spring and has a woodsy hay smell.

My one little plant has spread all over and I have given it to friends. It is a pretty alternative to grass in shady places that won't grow grass.
