Notes
'Pink Chablis' spotted dead nettle (Lamium maculatum 'Pink Chablis') is a groundcover for shade gardens, borders, and easy care spots. It is hardy to USDA zone 4, or down to -30°F (-34°C). This plant likes part sun to full shade and dry to moist soil of most types. It is not a favorite of deer or rabbits, though hungry ones will eat almost anything. It creeps and grows fast, spreading 12 to 24 inches, so give it room. It blooms in spring, summer, and autumn and tolerates drought.
Pairs well with Minuteman hosta, Western sword fern, and Endless Summer hydrangea.
