Lamium galeobdolon, the rampant one (Lamium galeobdolon (Goldnessel))

Lamium which increases rapidly by rooting along these long stems. Just noticed looking at the leaves the white and green are in reverse to the maculatum. Has yellow flowers in season.

I have to admit it is very attractive....

A garden escapee, Hywel.
Dd, I don't find it too big of a problem, and the yellow flowers are on a bit of a stalk, so fairly obvious.

We had it in the garden when we moved here, an escapee from next door!

This is the cultivated variety, but it still has bad habits!

Same flowers as this Simbad, but your leaves have elongated blotches on them, nicer I think.

I have this one, it's happy in the woodland and it can do what it likes there without being a nuisance.
