@Sereverus @PugLove888 @Trismagistos Or maybe somewhat like 'Sweet Woodruff' (below) - but you're absolutely correct.... 'Lily of the Valley' looks much different.
- @SheriGR @Sereverus @PugLove888 Those are nice too! And I agree they also show more resemblance with the depicted screenshot.
I also know Sweet Woodruff as 'Sweetscented bedstraw'. In my language the common name is something translated as 'Dear Lady Bedstraw' (Lieve Vrouwe Bedstro) and was also used in the Middle Ages upon till the 19th century to mix with the stuffing in matrasses to keep away the moths, mites, ticks and fleas. 😉@SheriGR , yes, the ground cover swatch does look a lot like the Sweet Woodruff! (I've seen Woodruff used as a last name! ) Very nice!
@Trismagistos , I could tell by the similarity of "Bedstro" to the English "Bedstraw" that your language is related to English (and therefore German) , but I wasn't familiar with enough of the other 2 words to recognize it as Dutch! I don't speak a word of Dutch but I can often recognize it. 😉 But I failed in this case! 😅
How wonderfully smart of people to use this as the stuffing for mattresses! 💡🙌- @PugLove888 Nope you passed with flying colours! 🥇
I am Dutch and my mother language is also related to German, Flemish, Danish and English. Originally it is Old Saxon. Even in Switzerland they speak a sort of 'old Diets' which has a lot of similarities with Dutch and German.
