Lamium ‘Ghost’ is a standout spotted dead nettle known for its luminous silver foliage and excellent performance in shaded garden spaces.

This semi-evergreen perennial forms a low, spreading mat with larger leaves than most Lamium varieties. In spring, orchid-purple flowers appear above the foliage, creating a striking contrast that brightens woodland and shaded areas.

‘Ghost’ is tolerant of drought, deer, clay soils, and coastal conditions, making it a dependable choice for low-maintenance landscapes. It naturally roots as it grows, forming an attractive ground cover that also works beautifully in containers and hanging baskets.

Thriving in part shade to full shade with moderately moist soil, this variety brings year-round texture and color to borders, underplantings, and shaded pathways.

Organically grown and shipped with care—ready to spread beauty through your garden.
