Lambs Ear - Hummelo
Lambs Ear - Hummelo Lambs Ear Hummelo, Stachys monnieri 'Hummelo', produces sturdy spikes of rosy lavender flowers that make an impressive display in mid-summer. Unlike the more common types of stachys, which have soft silvery foliage, 'Hummelo' has glossy dark green foliage which remains attractive all season! The mounding foliage is heavily textured and this species forms rugged, large, rounded clumps of green, long and narrow, textured leaves. It is lovely even when it's not in bloom! 'Hummelo' Lamb's Ear needs to be planted in full sun in a well-drained area. It makes a unique and stunning addition to any sunny border! This plant will add texture and color in rock gardens and looks wonderful with Veronica ‘Goodness Grows’, Tradescantia ‘Concord Grape’ or other purple blooming perennials. The clumps will spread over time to form a dense ground cover. Leaves are evergreen in warm winter climates, but will not do well in harsh winters. A robust bloomer, this 'Hummelo' Lamb’s Ear is an outstanding garden performer! * Glossy foliage * Mounding habit * Robust

Grapelike berries are produced only by the female plant, are edible, and ripen in the fall. Train Arctic Beauty Male to cover a fence or arbor. It can grow to twenty feet, provides great texture, and adds a wonderful appearance to any landscape. Plant in sun to partial shade. Attracts butterflies The Arctic Beauty Kiwi tends to make no fruits unless you have other cultivars or more than three plants - it's a hit and miss to find if you have male plants or female plants as you need one of each to product fruits. This species is dioecious (separate male and female plants), and the male plants reportedly have better leaf variegation than the female plants. |
