Plant of the Month: Whitestem Hedgenettle (Stachys albens)
Stachys albens (whitestem hedgenettle) is a mint endemic to California. The plant is fuzzy all over and the leaves are reminiscent of lamb's ears. Whitestem hedgenettle is a very generous plant that spreads by rhizomes and blooms from May to October. This plant has a wide habitat distribution and can be found anywhere between sea level and and elevation of 9,000 ft. This dreamy little hedgenettle is very easy to grow in sun-to-part sun, regularly watered areas. It is a host plant for the larva of the variable checkerspot butterfly.
