Wenn der Frühling im Mai seinen Höhepunkt erreicht, streckt der Kriechende Günsel seine wunderschönen blauen Blüten aus dem Wiesengrün. Er liefert nicht nur wertvollen Nektar für Hummeln und andere Wildbienen, sondern kann aufgrund seiner heilkräftigen Inhaltsstoffe auch als Heilpflanze genutzt werden. Im Mittelalter war er ein bedeutsames Wundkraut, das in allen alten Kräuterbüchern lobend erwähnt wird.
