Description
āSilver Carpetā Lambās Ear is a problem solver for low borders, or hellstrips, and groundcover. Silver-white wooly foliage grows to 6-8ā tall and spreads readily. Suitable for sunny, dry areas and areas where the soil is poor, it will spread more quickly in fertile soils. Water moderately, especially in extreme heat. Best in areas with high summer heat, but avoid planting in high humidity areas, as these conditions may cause foliar rot. Beautiful planted around a birdbath or other ornament, in a crevice or rock garden slope, or planted as an edging along a path. It is especially beautiful with Nepeta, Lavender, and textured grasses. Deer and rabbits avoid Lambās Ear thanks to its wooly texture, and this plant can also tolerate planting beneath black walnut trees.

adds the dramatic color into the garden
"no comment. plan arrived alive it has doubled in size but has not reached its potential"
Smaller than I realized but spread out well!
"I ordered 6 of the 3" pots -- when they first arrived at the end of April and I saw how tiny the plants were, I wished I'd gone for a larger size. However, after 3 months, they're large and well established with 5 of them looking very healthy. (The sixth is in a bit of a divot and its bottom leaves are a bit rotted/waterlogged after nearly 2 weeks of solid rain, which is probably my fault for not giving it better drainage in my clayey soil. )"
Super hardy
"I bought a couple of these are filler for my flower beds, but underestimated how big they would get in the first year! When they arrived each plant had two-three leaves and in just 3 months I have huge, beautiful bunches of lambs ear."
