Plant Features

Red Nancy Lamium is a sprawling ground cover that produces tiny, two-lipped, red-purple flowers. Plants grow well in average to moist garden soil and partial shade. It's capable of filling in open spaces in the garden. Prune plants back hard if they become too open or leggy to encourage a flush of new growth. Southern gardens should provide midday shade as they are challenged by heat and humidity.

Our Lamium Plants are grown with care and free from harmful pesticides, making them a safe and beautiful groundcover addition to your garden. Guaranteed to arrive healthy and ready to thrive!

Planting Instructions:

  • - Best planted in spring or fall for optimal root establishment
  • - Space plants 12-18 inches apart to allow for spreading growth

Soil Preparation:

  • - Ideal soil pH: 5.5-7.5
  • - Prefers well-drained soil, tolerates a wide range of soil types, including poor soils

Watering Specifics:

  • - Water thoroughly after planting and keep the soil consistently moist until established
  • - Once established, Lamium is drought-tolerant and only needs occasional watering

Fertilizer Type:

  • - Apply a light, balanced fertilizer in early spring to encourage healthy growth
  • - Avoid over-fertilizing, as it can encourage leggy growth

Pruning and Training:

  • - Trim back after flowering to maintain compact growth and encourage a second flush of blooms
  • - Cut back in late fall to clean up old growth and prepare for the next season

Additional Pest Management:

  • - Lamium is generally pest-resistant but can occasionally attract slugs in damp conditions
  • - Ensure good air circulation to prevent powdery mildew

Blooming Indicators:

  • - Blooms in late spring and early summer with clusters of small, tubular flowers in shades of pink, purple, or white

Temperature Tolerance:

  • - Hardy in USDA zones 3-8, tolerates both heat and cold, and thrives in partial shade

Companion Plants for Lamium:

  • - Ferns: Complements Lamium’s trailing habit with delicate fronds for texture
  • - Hosta: Adds bold, broad foliage that contrasts beautifully with Lamium’s smaller leaves
  • - Heuchera: Provides colorful foliage that pairs well with Lamium’s blooms and silvery leaves
  • - Brunnera: Offers heart-shaped leaves that enhance the soft texture of Lamium
  • - Astilbe: Complements Lamium with its airy, colorful blooms and shade tolerance
