Wood stitchwort
Stellaria nemorum
Wood stitchwort is a delicate woodland wildflower that prefers shaded, moist conditions similar to its natural forest-floor habitat. Plant it in humus-rich, consistently moist soil with dappled or partial shade for best results. It is low maintenance once established and works beautifully as a ground cover in shaded garden areas.
