DESCRIPTION
Lamium maculatum 'Beacon Silver' is a ground-covering perennial known for its distinctive silver leaves with dark green edges, creating a beautiful contrast that brightens shaded areas of the garden. The foliage has a shimmering, metallic quality that adds texture and interest even when the plant is not in bloom. From late spring through summer, 'Beacon Silver' produces clusters of small, tubular pink or purple flowers, which complement the silvery foliage and attract pollinators such as bees.
Originating in Europe, 'Beacon Silver' has become popular for its ability to thrive in low-light areas, making it ideal for woodland gardens, shady borders, or underplanting around trees and shrubs. Its creeping habit makes it an excellent choice for ground cover, providing both ornamental value and practicalbuse in filling in bare spots or controlling erosion in difficult planting areas.
