28.Lamb’s Ear

Wait until you learn about Lamb's Ear if you think Artemisia isn't enough for your garden's silvery, gentle texture. The young leaves are incredibly soft and coated in tiny white, downy hairs, as the name suggests. 

The vine, which is related to mint, has cute tiny pink flowers in tight clusters at the tops of spikes, making it a season-long standout. Draining and over-watering should be avoided, just as we should avoid them with Artemisia. You undoubtedly did not intend to see a summary flower on the list like this one!
