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.
