Nettle 'Silver Sparkle' Sale
- Regular price $16.79
Type:
The Nettle 'Silver Sparkle', a cultivated variety of the common stinging nettle, Urtica dioica, transforms the infamous weed into a visually striking ornamental plant. Unlike its wild counterpart, 'Silver Sparkle' is cherished for its unique aesthetic appeal, featuring variegated leaves that shimmer with silvery hues, interspersed with deep green. This contrast not only adds a touch of elegance but also illuminates shaded garden spots or indoor spaces.
Despite its association with the stinging nettle, 'Silver Sparkle' is often chosen for its decorative qualities and the intriguing texture it brings to plant collections. It thrives under the same conditions as its native species, preferring moist, rich soil and partial shade, mimicking the forest undergrowth or stream banks of its ancestors.
This variety is an excellent choice for those looking to add a bit of sparkle to their indoor or shaded outdoor spaces. It requires regular watering to keep the soil consistently moist, reflecting its natural preference for damp environments. Additionally, 'Silver Sparkle' can serve as a conversation starter, blending the worlds of horticultural beauty and natural defense mechanisms.
