It was my very first plant I order online so I wasn’t sure what to expect but when it got here and in one piece and as long as it is I was shocked but very HAPPY.

Pink Pewter Spotted Dead Nettle | Lamium maculatum ‘Pink Pewter’ | Spotted Dead Nettle ‘Pink Pewter’ | Dead Nettle ‘Pink Pewter’
Pink Pewter Spotted Dead Nettle is a low‑growing, shade‑loving perennial prized for its striking, heart-shaped silvery leaves edged in dark green and its delicate clusters of soft pink, hooded blooms. This exceptional selection from the Lamium family is known for its trailing, mat‑forming habit, excellent tolerance of dry shade once established, and prolific flowering from late spring through early summer. Its nectar‑rich blossoms draw bees and other pollinators, making it a standout choice for woodland gardens, shady borders, groundcover, and mixed containers. With its tidy form and reliable performance in low-light conditions, Pink Pewter offers beautiful texture and continuous interest with minimal maintenance.
Growing Pink Pewter Spotted Dead Nettle
Light: Partial shade to full shade; thrives in dappled sunlight and requires protection from harsh, direct afternoon sun to prevent leaf scorch.
Soil: Moist, well‑drained soil; highly adaptable but performs best in organically rich soils and dislikes overly wet, poorly drained winter conditions.
Water: Moderate; water regularly until established, then it becomes quite tolerant of dry shade, requiring supplemental watering only during extreme droughts.
Maintenance: Shearing the plant back lightly after its first major flush of flowers helps maintain a compact, bushy shape and encourages fresh silvery foliage.
Wildlife: Highly attractive to bumblebees and other early‑season pollinators; highly deer‑ and rabbit‑resistant.
Hardiness: Herbaceous perennial in USDA zones 3–9.
