Santa Rosa Gardens

This tiny Ajuga may be small, but it has so much color!  The leaves are narrow and tricolored.  Each leaf has a touch of green, cream, and rose-purple.  More color will come in the late spring through the summer with its violet/blue spike flowers.  Due to its compact growth habit, it makes a great natural weed suppressant.  Use it in the landscape in between stepping stones in a pathway or use it as erosion control on a steep slope.
