Ajuga

Bugleweed

From the Latin abigo, to drive away, Ajuga was thought to drive away disease. To some of us that disease is winter; the remedy is Bugleweed, herald of spring, with its clear blue, white or pink flowers. The crisp, crinkled foliage hugs the ground for a quick-spreading, evergreen carpet. Use Ajuga en masse under a high canopy, or to soften the hard edges of walls and paving. A moisture-retentive soil is recommended.

Ajuga tenorii ‘Emerald Chip’   

Embellished with blue pagodas, this viridescent Ajuga ‘Chocolate Chip’ sport hosts a refined, low-to-the-ground emerald green carpet of small, narrow foliage. ‘Emerald Chip’ makes a tidy, vibrant understory for Physocarpus ‘Summer Wine’s lavish crimson-red leaves.

Blooms March–mid-May.

Size: 3"–6" high x 12" & spreading; hardy to zone 4.
