Ajuga reptan Catlins Giant

Dense, rapidly spreading, groundcover. Larger-leafed ajuga, purple-green foliage with a ruffled edge. Whorls of blue flowers on spikes to 8" tall. Tolerant of full sun, drought (once established) and poor soils. Does very well in shady areas where grass will not grow. Dense foliage will choke out weeds, although not particularly tolerant of foot traffic and not suitable for hot, humid conditions. Attracts butterflies and hummingbirds and is considered evergreen. It is the perfect candidate to fill the shady space beneath trees, or to ramble as a filler and edger through large woodland gardens.

Considered deer resistant when mature.
