A detailed macro shot captures the fuzzy texture and vibrant purple flowers of Lamb's Ears (Stachys byzantina) in bloom. The soft, silvery-gray foliage provides a striking contrast to the small, clustered blossoms.
The walled Dutch Garden was planted, according to Gertrude Jekyll’s plan of 1907, as a haven for Mediterranean plants, with small-flowered roses, heliotrope, lavender, catmint, santolina, hebe, sharp-pointed Yuccas, and edgings of grey Stachys lanata or lambs' ears. There are four of these garden urns in the Dutch Garden.
