🌱 Ground Ivy (Glechoma hederacea), also known as Creeping Charlie or Gill-over-the-ground, is a perennial herb that is part of the mint family. It is known for its creeping habit and bright green leaves. While it is considered a weed by many gardeners, it has been used as an edible herb for centuries. The leaves and flowers of Ground Ivy can be used in salads, soups, and as a garnish. It has a minty, slightly bitter flavor and is said to have medicinal properties, including being a diuretic and helping with respiratory issues. However, it is important to note that Ground Ivy can be toxic if consumed in large quantities and should be used in moderation.
