Lamb’s ear plants have become waterwise garden staples thanks to their adaptable, easygoing natures and fresh appearances spring through fall. 'Little Lamb' Lamb's Ear is no exception, providing a fuzzy, silvery mat of miniature, oblong leaves through three seasons with little more than the deep, occasional watering. The unique foliar texture and color of these plants makes them superb additions to waterwise gardens that suffer from “green blob syndrome” -- use them at bed edges, or in gardens with shorter plant material, in clusters through the bed to provide visual breaks that help other textures and colors to pop. Lamb’s Ears rank among the best waterwise living mulches and hellstrip (inferno strip) plants, and double as excellent plants for patio pots where foliar interest is needed. Lamb’s ears -- even those with miniature foliage -- can spread with vigor to make clumps of about two feet across, so are best given adequate space or planted with neighbors who can handle the competition.
