Ajuga reptans 'Burgundy Glow'
Bugleweed
Burgundy Glow offers fantastic tricolored foliage in shades of creamy-white, rose-burgundy, and dark green. This variety of Ajuga continues to sparkle in the fall, with azure leaves turning a deep bronze while the newer growth takes on a rose tone. From mid to late spring, short spikes of blue flowers stand upright above the low, spreading foliage.
Ajuga, also known as Bugleweed or Carpet Bugleweed, is a good choice for the shade garden as it offers color and interest all season long with its interesting foliage. The effect is stunning when planted in mass groupings and also fits nicely into rock gardens and mixed container planting.
Bugleweed Growing and Maintenance Tips:
All varieties of Ajuga grow best in partial to full shade and will tolerate any soil, as long as it is well-drained. Avoid soggy conditions. Morning sun will intensify color.
