Distribution

Ground ivy, sometimes called creeping Charlie, is a common weed of moist shaded places and is to be found in fencerows, about farmsteads, and in woodland pastures, gardens, and wastelands. It is also frequent near streams and ditches. A native of Europe, it has become a common plant throughout Illinois.
