Description
(4-6" tall x 18-30" wide.) Stachys byzantina 'Silver Carpet' (Lamb's Ear) is a handsome, fuzzy, grey-leaved groundcover that
thrives in problem areas such as dry shade and poor soils.
Non-flowering, use the foliage to contrast nicely with green and blue
leaved plants. A great medium spreading groundcover that thrives in the
xeric garden. Best in regions with dry summer heat; avoid planting in
areas with high humidity, as these conditions can cause foliar rot. Good
for Firescaping. (Photo credit: Plenuska (Own work) [CC BY-SA 4.0
