USDA Hardiness Planting Zones
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).
10" tall x 14" wide, (cutting propagated). An oldie but a goodie, Lamiastrum galeobdolon 'Herman's Pride' (Yellow Archangel) is the right answer for shady areas. The deep yellow flowers of 'Herman's Pride' cover the eye-catching silver and green checkered foliage in spring. The plant's superbly ornamental foliage keeps its area looking bright. 'Herman's Pride' Archangel is well behaved and doesn't outgrow its area. Winter deciduous; plant it with early spring blooming bulbs to prolong the seasons of color.

Lamiastrum (Archangel) is a vigorous spreading groundcover native to the Old World. 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.
