Plant Details:
Plant Type: Perennial
Plant Family: Lamiaceae
Plant Description: A less common, more finely textured cultivar, Little Lamb Lamb’s Ear still flaunts the much-adored fuzzy greenish silver leaves that the species is known for. In late spring and early summer, it sends up short lavender and pink flower spikes, but it is typically valued for its evergreen foliage. This perennial makes for an excellent groundcover or edging plant.
