Silver Carpet for Shady Spots — Variegated Yellow Archangel

Looking for something that will fill in a shady, dry area quickly and look beautiful doing it? Variegated Yellow Archangel (Lamiastrum galeobdolon 'Variegatum') is a fast-spreading groundcover perennial with rounded green leaves splashed with broad, bright silver variegation — stunning even when not in bloom. In mid to late spring, cheerful two-lipped yellow flowers blanket the foliage, adding a pop of seasonal color. Drought-resistant and low maintenance, it thrives where many plants struggle. Note: This plant spreads vigorously — best planted in a contained area or where spreading is welcome.
