Hi Connie, This picture isn't it either, but looks like another Ballota I
have called B. nigra 'Archer's Variegated'. In searching some of my
wholesale catalogs, I find a picture of Ballota acetabulosa 'All Hallow's
Green' that appears to have the correct fuzzy texture and flower, but is
green-gray rather than silvery gray. Now I am thinking this plant that I
have had for so long was probably incorrectly labeled and is not B. nigra
but B. acetabulosa. I'll call the wholesaler tomorrow and see if I can get
it straightened out. I'll let you know what I find out.
