Levilyla,
Well, you've got a greaat path too, looks like it could belong to a public garden. I too would like to know what the blue flower is?
Shady
Complete shade, drought, and foot traffic tolerant plant
This picture was taken last spring...it is Phlox divaricata (it is all over!) Very pretty in the spring but then gets mildew.
Sweet Woodruff looks like a mighty fine plant to me. Joan

Love Sweet Woodruff but made the mistake of planting a lot of it in a dry shade area. Lost most of it. It needs moisture. What about ajuga? I have it volunteering in a number of dry shade areas in my garden. Walk on it all the time.
