Aureum Yellow Lamium
Lamium galeobdolon 'Aureum'
Bright, bold, and effortlessly ground-covering, Aureum Yellow Lamium is a vibrant perennial valued for its striking golden-yellow foliage and cheerful spring blooms. Forming a spreading carpet of heart-shaped leaves with silvery markings, this fast-growing variety lights up shady areas with brilliant color and texture throughout the growing season.
In mid to late spring, short spikes of soft yellow, hooded flowers rise just above the foliage, adding seasonal charm to its already eye-catching form. Ideal for planting beneath trees, along shaded pathways, or in mixed woodland borders, ‘Aureum’ quickly fills in bare spots and helps suppress weeds.
Thriving in partial to full shade and tolerant of a wide range of soils, this low-maintenance groundcover is both deer-resistant and drought-tolerant once established. Its vibrant foliage offers long-lasting appeal, even when not in bloom.
Bring bright foliage and fast, reliable coverage to the shady spots in your landscape with Aureum Yellow Lamium—a standout groundcover that combines ornamental beauty with easy care.
