Ahh… one of my favourites… Ground Ivy (Glechoma hederacea). I hope you crushed and smelt it? Awesome plant…
Thank you so much …
Had I known the identity of it earlier, I would have surely done that …, but we were visiting that place with family and I sneaked in the photo activity in the little time that we had there.
Also when you travel with family, not everyone likes this ‘waste of time’ as they call it 🙂
I also came across a similar plant in Vienna, Austria. Attached are the pics, could this also be the same? I apologise for the quality of pics. Attachments (5)
Gundermann
in picture 8335 there is gundermann and brennnessel. in 8336 Gunderemann and waldmeister. see foto Thank you … Waldmeister means ‘Galium odoratum’ and Brennnessel means ‘Urtica dioica’ as per Wiki. The Galium odoratum flowers look pretty (as per images on the net) but I do not recollect seeing the flowers at that time. References:
