Lamium
'Anne
Greenaway'
Spotted Dead Nettle |
ZONE 3-8, HT 6-8", PART SUN/SHADE
The foliage on this Lamium is outstanding! It is a wonderful blend of chartreuse, silver, medium green and mint green. The pinkish flowers that appear in late spring to mid summer just "pop" against the foliage. It is a perfect plant to brighten up those dark, boring corners of your shade garden, and fill in holes left by early blooming bulbs and woodland plants. |
