LAMIUM MACULATUM ‘BEACON SILVER’

The handsome leaves of this deadnettle are marbled silver with green edges, perfect for lighting up a shady corner. It forms a mass of semi-evergreen foliage and nettle-like magenta flowers appear May–June. Happiest in cool, moist, free-draining soil in part shade, it’s ideal for planting under deciduous trees and shrubs, and once established it can cope with drier conditions. H15cm (6in) S60cm (2ft)
