Hummelo Betony Description
This rarely offered perennial really steals the show— even when not in bloom. Recently named the 2019 Plant of the Year, Hummelo Betony makes a great midsummer addition to flowering borders, container gardens and woodland areas. Upright stems bear tightly packed blooms of rich lavenderrose. These flower spikes rise out of big, neat mounds of verdant, textured foliage. Many gardeners prize Hummelo as much for its foliage as for its blooms. Prefers moist soil.Stachys monieri
