Luzula nivea

snowy woodrush

Product Image
Providing attractive ground cover throughout the year, the slender, hairy leaves form loose clumps, which in midsummer are topped with tall stems carrying elegant clusters of white flowers. It self-seeds freely, so prompt dead-heading will be required if you want to keep the clump small.

Lift and divide congested colonies between April and June. Remove tatty foliage in early spring.
