Silver Edged Horehound

Marrubium rotundifolium is a vigorous, mat-forming evergreen perennial prized for its ornamental foliage. Native to Turkey, it features rounded, soft green leaves with striking silver-white edges and woolly undersides that shimmer in the sun. This drought-tolerant groundcover thrives in full sun and poor, well-drained soils, making it ideal for rock gardens or xeric landscapes. While it produces small white flowers in spring, its primary appeal is the fuzzy, deer-resistant carpet it creates.
