Description

Bronze Beauty Ajuga, also known as Bugleweed, is a low growing and spreading perennial plant that features beautiful green scalloped foliage tinted bronze. Eyecatching spikes of deep lavender-blue flower rise above the rosettes in spring. Quickly spreading by stolons, this is a beautiful plant for use to quickly cover the ground in shady to partly shaded areas such as under and around trees and shrubs.

Landscape & Garden Uses

Growing in a carpet-like patch to 3 to 4 inches tall and spreading 18 inches or more, Bronze Beauty Ajuga is a wonderful choice for use as a colorful groundcover in shady to partially shaded areas. With consistently moist soil this variety will tolerate full sun in the South. Also ideal for use as a spreading border along paths and walkways, as a groundcover to fill in around shrubs in home foundation plantings and woodland areas, as a gap and crevice filler between pavers and stones, as an underplanting for shrubs and trees, tucked around boulders in rock gardens, as a soil cover in combination container gardens.

Suggested Spacing: 12-18 inches apart for mass plantings and solid borders

Growing Preferences

When planted right and in the right spot, Bronze Beauty Ajuga is easy to grow. It adapts to most soil types and likes shade to part shade. Morning sun or all day filtered sun is fine. It prefers a moist but well-drained soil of average fertility. Overly dry soils will require supplemental irrigation. As with many other plants, a constantly soggy or wet soil can be problematic.
