Lemon Frost Dead Nettle

Lemon Frost combines bright yellow foliage with lavender flowers that ItSaul lists for May through June. Its producer’s exact plant page gives a compact height of 4–6 inches, a 12–18-inch spread, and USDA Zone 6; the cultivar’s trailing growth suits pot edges and low shaded borders. ## Garden use Place it where the foliage is easy to see, such as a container rim or the front of a part-shade bed. The [ItSaul Lemon Frost page](https://www.itsaulplants.com/plantname/Lamium-Lemon-Frost) describes bright yellow leaves and lavender bloom, while [Wisconsin Extension](https://hort.extension.wisc.edu/articles/spotted-deadnettle-lamium-maculatum/) notes that spotted deadnettle generally grows well in shade or part shade in moist, well-drained soil. Its spreading stems can fill gaps among larger perennials, but keep them clear of delicate, low-growing neighbors. ## Maintenance Keep evenly moist while establishing, then water during extended dry periods. Trim or lift stems that extend beyond the planting area; remove tired foliage if summer heat causes decline.
