Ajuga 'Chocolate Chip' / BUGLEWEED
Ajuga 'Chocolate Chip', also known as Bugleweed, is a compact and attractive groundcover that features glossy, deep chocolate-brown leaves with a slight green undertone. This low-growing perennial forms a dense carpet of foliage, adding rich color and texture to shaded or partially shaded areas of the garden. In spring, it produces spikes of vibrant blue flowers that contrast beautifully with the dark leaves and attract pollinators like bees and butterflies. Ideal for spreading in shady spots, 'Chocolate Chip' thrives in moist, well-drained soil and is often used to fill in gaps between other plants or as a groundcover in woodland gardens. With its striking foliage and easy-care nature, this variety of Bugleweed is perfect for adding both beauty and coverage to your landscape.
