Nepeta glechoma 'Dappled Light'

Nepeta glechoma 'Dappled Light'

 - comm. Creeping Charlie; syn. Glechoma hederacea 'Dappled Light'

A close relation to a very popular basket and patio favourite called Nepeta ‘Grannilocks’. This variety produces a mass of long trails, beginning as creamy variegated foliage, rose-tinted as it forms, becoming a little more green as it matures, but retains the exquisite dappled effect. A great foil to create colourful basket and container combinations.
