Lamium galeobdolon ‘Variegatum', commonly known as Variegated Archangel, will form a glowing, silver carpet on the toughest sites. This spreading groundcover has silver variegated leaves that stay evergreen in warmer climates. It sends up whorls of bright, two-lipped yellow flowers in spring. This groundcover looks delicate but is tough as nails and can smother out weeds in no time.   

Variegated Archangel spreads by creeping stems that root wherever its nodes touch the ground. It can spread aggressively under optimal growing conditions. This groundcover is useful in erosion control, weed suppression, and dry shade. It quickly fills in areas under large trees, where many other plants fail, and can brighten shady corners in need of a makeover. Use it in a moon garden to sparkle at night among other silvery plants. 

Variegated Archangel Care

This perennial grows best in part shade to full shade. It adapts easily to different soil types, including clay and sand, and tolerates heat and short periods of drought. It prefers rich, moist soil, but will spread less rapidly in poor, dry soil. Water Variegated Archangel regularly during the growing season to help it look its best. Apply a generous layer of organic compost around the root zone to slow evaporation of moisture.

Trim back spent foliage in early spring before new growth emerges. The foliage will remain evergreen in Southern zones.

Variegated Archangel Spacing

To form a solid mat, space individual plants approximately 18 inches apart on center and stagger the planting rows.If growing in a container, select a weather-resistant pot with large holes for drainage and a diameter of at least 16 inches.

Plant Addicts Warranty - 1 Year (Extra Purchase Required)

We encourage all plant lovers to purchase the Plant Addicts Warranty, whether you're a new gardener or an expert. There are many variables outside of anyone's control that can cause a plant to die. Hungry animals, drought, poor soil conditions, over watering, diseases & pests are all good examples of what can cause plants to die. The Plant Addicts Warranty is a 1 year warranty protecting you from all of the unknowns and will replace your plant if something were to happen to it.

The warranty is purchased on a per plant basis and must be purchased at the same time as the plant(s). We will cover 100% of the price of the plant, but the warranty does not cover shipping costs. SImply let us know if your plant has died within 1 year of receiving it and we will get you a new one shipped out as soon as possible (depending on the time of the year and availability). We may ask for photos for documentation purposes, but we try to make the process as easy as possible.

Guarantee and Warranty

Plant Shipping

Below are some factors we consider when determining when to ship the plants depending on the timing of the order.

Winter to Early Spring

We ship only when it's warm enough to plant in your growing zone.
Sometimes plants aren't completely ready to sell and ship in early spring. We will wait until the plants are ready before shipping so you don't get a subpar product.
For Southern plants we will be able to ship much earlier than plants coming from our northern nursery.

Summer

If there is extreme heat we may delay shipping for a week or several weeks.
We review what areas the plants are traveling through as well as your location.

Fall into Winter

We’ll ship plants out all the way up to the end of the fall planting season!

Winter

Get your order in early to reserve your plants for Spring planting!

Once your plant is shipped you’ll receive an automated email with tracking information.
