Asperula Orientalis, also called Oriental Woodruff, blooms in late spring to early summer with fluffy, lavender-blue flowers. Its lance-shaped leaves are wonderfully scented, creating a lovely perfume that wafts through the garden. The Oriental Woodruff herb is a terrific companion plant for roses, shrubs and large perennials. It tolerates quite a bit of shade, does well in moist locations, and the flowers attract butterflies. A synonymous botanical name is Asperula azurea.Planting Instructions:Start Blue Woodruff seeds indoors in the late winter for transplanting out in the spring. Or, many gardeners recommend sowing the herbs seeds directly outdoors in prepared seedbeds several weeks before the end of frost season.
