It grows to a height of approximately 30 to 60 cm above the ground and features oval leaves and white flowers. It generally flowers from spring to summer and prefers shady areas. It grows well in moderately well-drained soil and prefers cool, humid environments. Propagation Methods Lamium album subsp. barbatum can primarily be propagated by seeds or cuttings. Seed propagation is possible indoors or outdoors in the spring, with a germination temperature of approximately 15–20°C. Cuttings are taken during the summer; simply cut a healthy branch and plant it in moist soil. Cultivation Methods - Soil Preparation: Select well-draining soil. Add compost as needed to supplement nutrients. - Planting: It is appropriate to plant in the spring or autumn. Plant at intervals of approximately 30 cm to provide adequate space for individual plants to grow. - Watering: Water sufficiently in the early stages to help the roots establish themselves. Afterward, maintain a watering schedule where water is given only when the surface soil dries out. - Care: Remove weeds and apply fertilizer as needed. After the flowers have faded, remove the flower stalks to promote growth. Uses in the Garden Blanc's beard is excellent for use as a ground cover in shady gardens.
