Stachys discolor is a lovely herbaceous perennial which is grown for both its flowers and foliage. This small plant produces masses of tiny, white flowers on short stems through summer. These are held above the dark green foliage, and affords a lovely contrast. It typically grows to 15 cm tall and 30 cm wide, performing best when planted in full sun on a well-drained site. It is tolerant of coastal conditions, moderate frost, and reasonable shade. This plant is commonly included in borders, used as a ground cover, planted around the base of larger trees and shrubs, included in cottage or “white” gardens, planted around outdoor living areas, or mass planted for a stunning display.
