Lamium, Pink Pewter Plug Flat

Common name is Spotted Dead Nettle

Deer-resistant Self-cleaning, no deadheading necessary.

 This very large variety dwarfs other lamiums by comparison! Standing about a foot tall, the all-silver leaves create a billowy cloud of silver in the garden. The leaves measure a full 1.5 inches long compared to 1/2 to 3/4 inches long on other varieties.

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.
