| Anyone tried this as a groundcover? I was wondering if the performance would be same as the other color variety Silver Beacon?
Can Lamium be used in dry driveway strips in the darker shape if I amend the soil? Paul |

| I haven't tried 'Lemon Frost', but have grown 'Aurea' which has the same chartreuse leaves. I've had good results with dividing it before planting in compost amended soil, then taking cuttings & planting those as well to fill in a bit more. Works best in our rainy season or I have to water every few days until they root. Not as vigorous as the other lamiums, but still appreciates a haircut & then you can plant those, too! Yes, tolerates dry soil just not when it's a cutting. |
