Lamb's Ear Seeds - Medicinal Herb - Stachys Byzantina Lanata
Lamb's Ear is the perfect ground cover for a dry sunny spot. Its wooly silver foliage quickly forms a dense, delightful mat that contrasts nicely with other foliage and flowers. It makes everyone else look good.
This easy-care perennial thrives in zones 4 through 9. It loves full sun and dry gardens (but does not object to regular water).
It's as soft and furry as it looks and even blooms lavender flower spikes, lovely as cut flowers, an excellent flower for drying.

yes id did buy and receive bamboo seeds from you. i planted same and now cautiously await some indication the sprouting will begin. we are in northern nj where it is quite cold so i am keeping the plantings in a planter system we use for seedlings. only time luck and patience will tell the ultimate story. if the seeds come to be small plants we will replant into pots until spring and after that we are guardedly optimistic. thanks for the request and service. stewart a farber
I do not have an indoor garden so I am waiting until spring to plant. I will try planting closer to Feb or March in small pods watering with spray bottle, and slowly introduce the plants to outdoor conditions.
