for Lamium album var. barbatum, links to a group of
dancing ladies with rush hats on them. It inhabits semi-shady
portions on roadsides, creating a somewhat large population. Pale
yellow- and white types rarely exist also. Leaves are opposite,
5-10cm long, in the ovate-triangular to broad-ovate shape, with
pointed tips, coarse serrations on margins, and prominent reticulate
veins on surfaces. Axils on upper portions densely set white to
light red-purple labiate flowers in whorls. Bloom time: March-June.. |
