STACHYS SEEDS

The Stachys genus, commonly known as Lamb’s Ear or Betony, is a versatile and hardy member of the Lamiaceae family. These herbaceous perennials and subshrubs are celebrated for their textured, aromatic foliage and spikes of tubular flowers in shades of purple, pink, or white, which bloom from late spring to summer. Stachys adds softness and natural beauty to borders, rock gardens, and cottage gardens.

Native to Europe, Asia, and North Africa, Stachys thrives in well-drained soils and sunny to partially shaded locations, tolerating dry and poor conditions once established. Popular species such as Stachys byzantina, or Lamb’s Ear, are particularly admired for their silvery, velvety leaves, which add a tactile and visual contrast to plantings. Stachys officinalis, or Betony, is valued for its vibrant flowers and traditional use in herbal medicine.

The Stachys genus combines beauty, resilience, and ecological benefits, making it an excellent choice for gardeners seeking low-maintenance, pollinator-friendly plants that provide texture and colour to their landscapes.
