  Glechoma hederacea - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Glechoma hederacea (Ground-ivy) is a an aromatic, perennial, evergreen creeper of the mint family, Lamiaceae, native to Europe and southwestern Asia but introduced to North America and now common in most regions other than the Rocky Mountains.
The flowers of Glechoma are bilaterally symmetrical, funnel shaped, blue or bluish-violet to lavender, and grow in opposed clusters of 2 or 3 flowers in the leaf axils on the upper part of the stem or near the tip.
Glechoma is sometimes grown as a potted plant, and occasionally as a ground cover.

Abstract: Eight hermaphroditic genotypes of Glechoma hederacea originating from two habitats and two geographical regions were compared under greenhouse conditions to test for differences in growth at the end of the vegetation period.
In the patchy light treatments the frequency of branching, the leaf area of primary ramets and the proportional allocation to leaf biomass were significantly greater in high light patches and petiole length and proportional allocation to petiole biomass were significantly greater in low light patches.
This prediction was tested using females of the clonal, gynodioecious herb Glechoma hederacea in three natural populations.

The plant also acquired the name of Gill from the French guiller (to ferment beer), but as Gill also meant 'a girl,' it came also to be called 'Hedgemaids.'
Some hairy tumours may often be seen in the autumn on the leaves of Ground Ivy, caused by the puncture of the Cynips glechomae, from which these galls spring.
They have a strong flavour of the plant and are sometimes eaten by the peasantry of France.
