This wonderfully woolly, silver-grey plant has been popular for many generations. Its popularity lies in the soft silvery felted leaves, that beg to be touched. 'Silver Carpet' is particularly desirable since it rarely blooms, channelling most of its resources into producing a lush, and long lasting carpet of foliage.
