Omalotheca sylvatica
Omalotheca sylvatica, or wood cudweed, thrives in open woodland and meadow conditions with partial to full sun and moderately moist, well-drained soil. It is best suited for naturalistic or wildflower garden settings and does not perform well in hot, dry conditions. Minimal intervention is needed once established in a suitable cool-temperate environment.
