Hedge Woundwort -stachys sylvatica– is most commonly found growing along hedgerows and prefers semi-shade or shaded spots on damp, rich soils. It is a particularly useful plant for attracting bees to shaded areas. Hedge Woundwort typically grows to about 2 foot in height and has purple flowers that appear from July to September. Hedge Woundwort looks best growing alongside other spring wildflowers such as Nettle–leaved Bellflower, Betony and Herb Robert.

How to grow Hedge Woundwort Seeds
Hedge Woundwort seeds should be sown in spring or autumn, either outside, where they are to flower, or in seed trays and covered lightly with compost. Seeds can be pricked out and grown on, for planting out later in the year.
