Lamium (Deadnettle)

Lamium would be my suggestion - especially the pink ones - they do spread and you will have a sea of pink on top of the white/green leaves - they last for quit a while and then will rebloom in the season. Submitted by Claire

  • Zones: 4- 8
  • Colors: White, Pink, Purple
  • Height: 6" - 8" Width: Spreads
  • Bloom Period: Summer
  • Exposure: Partial Shade
  • Notes: Different species and varieties will spread faster than others. The ornamental Lamiums are related to the invasive weed Henbit, so be warned. However in the right spot, Lamium makes a welcome carpet.
