Lamium maculatum, also know as "Spotted dead-nettle" is an ornamental ground-cover perennial. Usually grown for its foliage, it also produces red to violet coloured blossoms. Foliage is often silver striped, though that may not appear on the leaves until the plant has produced a few true leaves (not including cotyledon leaves). 

These plants traditionally grow in shady conditions, though we have some growing between perennials in a sunny garden, and they do well there also. Also tolerant to fairly dry/acidic soil.
