Need Variegated Bishops Weed
Are you sure you want this?
I dont have any now....i dont think... been trying to kill it out for 10 years.
It is pretty but be sure you put it somewhere that you can control it. ( or try to control it :)

Would love to trade with you, pins. Is it too hot to send plants your way this time of year?... though I don't think you can kill Bishop's weed! Mine is already potted up, so I can send you a plant with a bit of the dirt knocked off and the roots in tact. Love those lamium!
My bishop's weed has been pretty well-behaved, but I have it in a spot where it doesn't matter. In your warm climate, I don't know, but Char probably does! It's a great filler in shady areas because the leaves are interesting all season and the variegation and light green show up well... but not for you favorite flower bed.... also it's a good container plant!
I want the bishop's weed for an area that is heavily shaded and kind of out of the way. I have a start of Honesty there, some azaleas, and a couple of hostas. The real weeds are killing me. What I love about bishop's weed is that it doesn't grow real tall like lamium. I don't think it will suffocate what I have there already.
I just got a start in the mail and with the paper towel very damp and sealed with a plastic bag, it was as fresh as it could be. I'm up for a trade now or in the fall.
Pins, how hot is it in GA right now? I can ship anytime between now and mid-September. Our season is pretty short here. My plants aren't used to very hot weather, but should adjust. The problem with my receiving plants that late is that the root systems don't have a chance to recoup before winter hits if I plant in September. If you ship to me in the spring, my ground doesn't even thaw until May. Why not email me and we can work out details. I might have some other things you'd be interested in, as well.
