In the summer months one of my favourite plants to enjoy is Stachys byzantina, otherwise known as ‘Lambs Ears’. This wonderful silver leafed plant is fantastic throughout the year for the border due to is highly touchable and furry, extra soft leaves in the shape of, you’ve guessed it, lambs ears. However, as the summer sun reaches high into the sky you’ll find that this wonderful plant puts furry columns into the air with small pinkish flowers creating small rings of colour around the stems.
This herbaceous plant is brilliant whether you use it in the border or in pots and is a must have for all gardeners. It’s touchable, it makes you smile, and it’s a great companion plant for creating contrast in the garden. With its textured and pale leaves it is ideal for planting alongside green individuals, setting each plant off the best of it’s ability. It can very effectively be placed next to broad leafed plants such as Bergenia, whilst grasses also make a great backdrop. And if you plant it into pots you’ll quickly creating a great mound of silver foliage that will clash magnificently with containers, especially if you used pots in blue hues.
