The Magical Lamium Collection brings ground covering, intricate foliage from at least March to November in vibrant and variegated colours. From April right through to August, this trio produces delicate pea-shaped flowers, commencing with Lamium orvala, followed by Lamiastrum galeobdolon and concluding with Lamium maculatum ‘Beacon Silver’. The blooms are accented with intricate and alluring markings, lending them an orchid-like exoticism. Plants in the Magical Lamium Collection are native to Europe and thrive in the UK climate. Blooms are borne in whorls on strong stems, they will shine out from a shady corner, adding delicacy and colour as well as beneficial weed-suppression for at least 9 months each year (‘Beacon Silver’ is evergreen). A draw for bees and other pollinators plants are able to naturalise, with drought tolerant abilities once established.Plants in the Magical Lamium Collection prefer moist, well-drained soil in part to full
