WHITE NANCY DEADNETTLE
Lamium maculatum 'White Nancy', commonly known as 'White Nancy' Spotted Deadnettle, is a charming, mat-forming herbaceous perennial highly valued as a groundcover, particularly for shady areas. It boasts striking, heart-shaped, variegated foliage, which features a silvery-white center with thin green margins, giving it a luminous appearance in low light. It typically grows to a height of 6 to 9 inches and can spread 24-30 inches, rooting along its sprawling stems to form a dense, weed-suppressing carpet. In late spring to early summer, small, hooded, pure white flowers appear in whorls above the foliage, adding a delicate texture and enhancing its brightening effect.
'White Nancy' Deadnettle is easy to care for. It is deer and rabbit resistant and thrives in partial to full shade. Plant it in average, medium-moisture, well-drained soil. It is ideally suited for under trees, shrubs or along a north-facing foundation where other plants struggle.
