The primary feature is the unique, thick, oval-shaped leaves densely covered with fine, silky, silver-white hairs, which give them their soft, woolly, lamb's ear-like texture. The leaves are smaller (2-5 inches long) than the standard species and remain a grayish-green with silver hints throughout the year, often evergreen in milder climates. This cultivar has a compact, mounding habit, typically reaching only 2 to 5 inches in height with a spread of 12 to 18 inches.
