Lamium maculatum
SPOTTED DEAD-NETTLE
- Unit price
- / per
Lamium maculatum, also know as "Spotted dead-nettle" is an ornamental ground-cover perennial. Usually grown for its foliage, it also produces red to violet coloured blossoms. Foliage is often silver striped, though that may not appear on the leaves until the plant has produced a few true leaves (not including cotyledon leaves).
These plants traditionally grow in shady conditions, though we have some growing between perennials in a sunny garden, and they do well also. Also tolerant to fairly dry/acidic soil, and they do well.
Type: Hardy perennial
Hardiness zones: 3-9
Location: Sun or shade
Height: 10-12", 20-30cm
Seeds per packet: 15
Sow just under the surface of the soil and water in. Temperature 20-22 C (68-72 F) for 4 weeks. They may be growing at this point. If they have not germinated after 4 weeks then a cooling period is required. Cover them with plastic and place in a fridge for 4 weeks. Be sure they stay moist. After the stratification period they are then brought back to room temperature for them to germinate. Germination can be 30-60 days after the warming period, though some can take longer.

Here's What Some Of Our Customers Had To Say (Thank you!)
First time ordering last year! WoW1
I started ordering seeds from this company a year ago and although they are expensive all the seeds germinated which i cant say about other seed companies' They also have a great selection of usual seeds and old time seeds which i love.
I got these pretty quickly and in perfect order. I can't wait to see what they look like once I plant them. I have another colour and they were so pretty I had to try these. I have used this seller a few times now with great success, and will again. Everything I have ordered has been of good quality!
Ferri Seeds is truly a wonderful company. They take the utmost care when delivering your seeds. Mine arrived promptly and when I had any questions, they were so happy to help me. I am looking forward to getting more from them soon. Thank you David for making this a delightful experience.
Never grew coleus from seed, and it was surprisingly easy. They germinated quickly on my heat mat and grow lights. Can't wait to see them in the garden!
Great product ! All seeds germinated and flourished nicely.
I was impressed with Ferriseed’s selection of seeds. Ordering was a breeze and the seeds arrived in a perfect little padded envelope in 9 days. I am very happy and will order from here again. Many thanks.
We placed our order on Thursday and received it on Monday. Here in Canada the tracking link is accurate. Ferri seeds tells you when they're shipping and when your order is delivered, the seeds arriving in excellent condition. We will definitely be ordering again this spring. Keep up the good work!
My order, made late afternoon, April 27th, and needed in a bit of a rush, was mailed next morning and arrived in my rural mailbox in BC, May 5th.
Thank you for your cheerful, friendly emails and prompt service. I certainly recommend you others and will be sure to keep an eye on the range of seeds you offer in future.
Gt the delivery on time. One week since i potted the seeds. Some of the seeds are already sprouting so i am very happy so far. No complaints yet
Fast shipping, good packaging, instructions included. They have germinated!
Thank you Ferri Seeds for the timely shipments of seeds I ordered. I have been looking to replace that plant for years.
Excellent service, (fastest!!) Great packaging. Also very appreciated is all of the information on how to 'deal' with perennial seeds! Will order again!! Thank you
Ferri Seeds – one of the best online and most helpful businesses I have ever had dealings with. Quick turnaround, dispatch, and beautifully packaged seeds. What more could you want – beautiful flowers would be nice. Well I am sure they will turn out to be.
The seeds came just as described. I appreciate the good follow-up to my questions also.
Fantastically seedlings. They were well packaged. I planted them right away and they’re growing nicely so far.
Fast service, amazing communication!
I happened across Ferri Seeds website when I Googled a particular plant I’d been looking for. I was impressed by their selection of all types of seeds and their good product descriptions along with detailed germination instructions. I found the site and ordered on a Saturday. On Sunday I got a notice that my order had been shipped! The seeds were in my P.O. box on Friday. Such amazing service. It’s too early to comment on germination rates — I’ve just started the stratification process today.
Received in 1-2 weeks in Canada, Ontario. Everything is as ordered. No issues. Ordered through the official web site.
The Japanese anemone seeds arrived promptly. Thank you Ferri Seeds!!
Very fast I am excited
Customer service excellent. Was able to order streptocarpus seeds. Hard to find.
Thank you for having showy Asters., Birdsnest Delphiniums and Colbalt Delphiniums and Obedient plant seeds in Stock. My butterfly garden is almost now complete. And I am cold stratificationing the seeds.
I had a herbarium project with a short deadline. Ferri Seeds were professional, friendly and sent me Alstroemeria seeds promptly. The seeds arrived in a protective sleeve within a letter envelope. The herbarium is complete! I highly recommend Ferri Seeds! Thank you!
Very good seller!
Very satisfied, quick service
It's been a pleasure dealing with Ferri Seeds!
Amazing selection. Fast service. I look forward to ordering in the future.
I had made an error with the adress and upon getting the order back from the post they contacted me and even agreed to send it to a new address without extra charges.
Honestly this kind of service is rare these days.
Thank you to the team of Ferri Seeds, rest assured I will be purchasing from this vendor again.
I have ordered multiple selections of seeds all with great germination rates. One order never arrived and they promptly sent a replacement no questions asked. I definitely recommend serious gardeners to check this site out.
I was very impressed with my order and the service I got from this company. I will order from them again.
Ferri Seeds offered a hard to find seed on their website. I placed the order but had questions about product and delivery. Customer service contacted me right away. My questions were answered right away. I was kept updated on delivery progress. The seeds were exactly what I wanted. My husband is a very serious gardener. I will do more business with Ferri.
I made a mistake with my address and they changed it right away when I let them know. I like that they ask you to check to see if everything is correct.
