Lamium maculatum 'Anne Greenaway'

Lamium maculatum ‘Anne Greenaway’ glows like a patchwork quilt in botanical form. Expect a whirl of light and dark greens with neat silver centers and golden edges, each leaf patterned as if a tiny garden gnome took up quilting. Mauve-pink blossoms pop in late spring and early summer, creating a sweet buffet for hummingbirds, who zip in for sips like tiny jeweled rockets.

Happy in anything from full sun to full shade, this groundcover spreads cheer wherever it goes.
6–8" tall, Zones 4–8.
