Overview
Lambs' ears (Stachys byzantina 'Silky Fleece') are a hardy and attractive perennial plant that can be grown in many different climate zones. They have grey-green leaves that feel soft and silky to the touch, just like a lamb's ear! In the summertime, they produce tall stalks of small, pink flowers that will attract bees and butterflies into your garden. Lambs' ears can thrive in sunny or partially shaded locations, even in dry or rocky soil. They are a great choice for borders or rock gardens and will stay evergreen and provide color to your garden even in the winter.
