Glechoma, scientifically known as Glechoma concolor, is a low-growing herbaceous plant belonging to the mint family, Lamiaceae. Native to regions of East Asia, including China, Japan, and Korea, it thrives in moist, shaded environments such as forest floors and rocky crevices. Its distinctive heart-shaped leaves and clusters of small blue to purple flowers make it a visually appealing addition to gardens and natural landscapes.

Despite its modest size, this plant plays a significant role in supporting local biodiversity and enhancing the aesthetic of shaded gardens.
