Big Ears Lamb's Ear

Stachys byzantina ‘Big Ears’ is a standout lamb’s ear variety known for its exceptionally large, velvety silver leaves with pronounced veining. The foliage is longer and broader than standard lamb’s ear, creating bold texture and soft contrast in the garden.

This drought- and coast-tolerant perennial forms a low, spreading habit that works beautifully as a ground cover, edging plant, or border accent. ‘Big Ears’ is also more rot resistant than many other Stachys varieties, making it a reliable choice in well-drained soils.

Blooming sparingly, the focus remains on its striking foliage. Deer resistant and attractive to butterflies, Stachys ‘Big Ears’ thrives in sun to part shade with moderate watering once established.
