Description
Lamium maculatum ‘Orchid Frost’ PP11122
Common name is Spotted Dead Nettle
Deer-resistant Self-cleaning, no deadheading necessary.
Silvery-white leaves with scalloped, blue-green margins are a lovely backdrop for the delicate, orchid-pink flowers which are produced profusely in midspring and sporadically throughout the summer.
The distinctive, two-toned effect of the leaves is unlike any other Lamium, and it simply glows in the shade.
Clusters of large, bright orchid purple flowers top the clump of silver foliage in mid to late spring. The contrast between the flowers and foliage is striking and often stops passersby in their tracks! Blooms from late April thru August.
Lamium makes an excellent, weed-smothering groundcover and is also a good mask for dying bulb foliage.
