About This Species
Grow me instead of Purple deadnettle
Snow-in-summer has deep green evergreen foliage with mounds of round white flowers in spring. It is a groundcover that looks great in mass plantings or in rock gardens. It is very drought and heat tolerant. Pollinators love it as well!
When selecting non-invasive plants for your garden, be sure to look for those that are suitable for your location, including moisture requirements, hardiness zone, and avoidance of known bear attractants among other factors.
