Jade Frost Yellow Archangel (Lamium galeobdolon ‘Jade Frost’)

Jade Frost Yellow Archangel (Lamium galeobdolon ‘Jade Frost’) is a striking perennial groundcover prized for its shimmering silver-variegated foliage and cheerful yellow flowers. This shade-loving plant brings season-long colour and texture to woodland gardens, shaded borders, underplantings, and difficult garden areas where many other plants struggle to thrive.

The attractive foliage features silvery-white centres surrounded by deep green margins, creating a bright, frosted appearance that illuminates shaded spaces. In late spring and early summer, clusters of vibrant yellow flowers emerge above the foliage, adding a splash of colour while attracting bees and other beneficial pollinators.

Jade Frost develops a low-growing, spreading habit that forms a dense carpet of foliage over time. Its vigorous growth makes it an excellent choice for erosion control, filling shaded garden spaces, and suppressing weeds. The foliage remains attractive throughout the growing season, providing ornamental interest even when not in bloom.

In Alberta, Jade Frost Yellow Archangel performs exceptionally well in shaded and partially shaded gardens, returning reliably each year with colourful foliage and spring blooms.
