Lamium maculatum 'White Nancy'

Plant Details:

Plant Type: Perennial
Plant Family: Lamiaceae
Plant Description: Low-growing, spreading, shade-loving plant with rounded silver-green to white leaves with serrated edges and green margins. Produces clusters of white flowers in mid to late-spring. Will spread in areas where it is happy. Handles shade and some drought. Performs best with plenty of water.

Maintenance:

Maintenance Type: Perennial - Herbaceous
Plant Care: Perennial - Herbaceous (soft-stemmed plants that die back in winter and regrow in spring): Remove spent blooms to promote rebloom later. Some plants tend to flop over after the first bloom and attempt to regrow from the base; in these cases, the old stems can be cut away in summer. As plants become dormant in the fall, remove dead leaves and stems.
