Ajuga reptans
‘Catlin’s Giant’
at Digging Dog
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 reptans ‘Catlin’s Giant’ 
‘Catlin’s Giant’ is twice
the size (and has twice the impact) of most other
Ajugas. Its deep blue flower spires rise 12 in. above
large, shiny bronze leaves. Let this one loose in a rock
garden, or plant it under Corylopsis for an
overlapping, opulent display of blooms.
Blooms March–mid-May. Size: 12" high x 12" & spreading; hardy to zone 4. Ajuga reptans Catlin’s Giant (p-0007)
