Wooly Lamb’s Ears

A plant for a child’s garden, a strange intruder, a lovely accent plant – which is it?

 The Wooly Lamb’s Ears plant can be whatever you’d like it to be.

 This unique plant invites people to stroke its soft leaves.  The silver hairs growing out of pale green foliage is simply beautiful.

 This member of the mint family is a tough survivor that will gradually expand throughout your garden.  In summer you will be treated to tall stalks covered with pink flowers.

 In addition, the leaves can be dried for crafts.  They do a good job of holding their color.  You can use them as an accent for a dried arrangement of make a wreath entirely of of Lamb’s Ears.

 Bees love them but deer and other pesky critters avoid them. 

 Enjoy then!
