Lamium - Ghost
Stunning Silver And Orchid
Lamium Ghost has a large mound of all silver leaves, which becomes is a great backdrop for its attractive clusters of bright orchid purple flowers!
Lamium 'Ghost', introduced by Intrinsic Perennial Gardens, stands 1' tall and the leaves are large, measuring 1.5" long compared to .5 - .75" long on the other varieties.
'Ghost' is an excellent groundcover and is also deer and rabbit resistant.
Lamium prefers a semi-shady dry area with well-drained soil, but will tolerate a wide range of soils and moisture. Do not allow it to dry out.
It is best to cut this plant back after the first bloom to promote compact growth. It disguises dying bulb foliage very well, and makes an excellent weed-smothering ground cover!
Use Lamium in hanging baskets, in mixed containers, trailing over walls or as an edging. Spread must be controlled, it can be invasive.
‘Ghost’ looks great among hostas, ferns, lungworts, bulbs and wildflowers.
'Ghost ‘ is a great performer, has attractive foliage and will brighten a partly sunny, semi-shady spot!
