Whilst on the subject of Lamium (Lamium aureum)

Lamium aureum still with the odd flower or two, after having a soil mulch to promote rooting along the stems.

Not so keen on that one - looks a bit anaemic to me, but guess it would be good at brightening a shady spot?

I like the contrast between flower and leaf colour with the lamium.

Love it, this was the one Roy (NGS) gave me, but it died! I didn't know that it was called Golden Anniversary, offer accepted with Thanks!!

Stera, it's a good thing we don't all like the same thing. I agree about brightening a dull spot, but it is not as strong growing as the green one.
I like this too, I have it growing in my Heuchera area, a hotchpotch of leaf colour, although this does not look clever at the moment, having dumped a spade's worth of top soil into the centre. The soil is good, and doesn't dry out too badly in summer. The variegated 'Silver Beacon' would finish the area off nicely.

Nice colouring , 'Silver Beacon ' is a lovely one brightens up areas under the trees here :-)
