White Nancy is an outstanding Old World groundcover for shade and semi-shade. Blooming much of the summer with bright white flower helod over green and white variegated foliage, this long lived groundcover is the best.
To determine if a plant is sufficiently cold hardy, the USDA created numbered zones indicating winter low
temperatures; the lower the zone number the colder the winter.
If the coldest winter temperature expected in your area is -15°F (zone 5) then any plants rated zones 3-5 will
survive the winter temperatures in your area.
If you live in very warm winter areas (zones 9-11) plants with zones 3-4 ratings are not recommended. The lack
of freezing winter temperatures do not provide a time for winter dormancy (rest).
4-6" tall x 15-18" wide (cutting propagated). A sturdy, fast growing ground cover for shade and semi-shade areas, it tolerates a wide range of soils and moisture levels. The leaves are white edged with a thin line of green; the flowers are a bright white and appear in late spring. It is amazing how this plant can light up a dark area of the garden with its variegated foliage. A welcome change from the common Ajugas. Good for Firescaping
Flat of 32 plants will cover 40-48 square feet when planted together

Preferred growing conditions
Dead-nettle thrives in a wide range of soils including clay. Plant them in partial to full shade.
Mulch is not needed. Being a vigorous growing groundcover, they are self-mulching.
Water regularly the first growing season to establish the plants. In arid western climates regular irrigation is needed in hot weather. In moister climates, additional watering is not needed.
Deadhead the plants after blooming to keep the plants looking tidy. But they generally will not come back into bloom.
Fertilize lightly in the fall with a half and half blend of Yum Yum Mix and good quality compost.
