Ajuga – Bugle

 The Ajuga Flower

The Ajuga is a low growing perennial.

It flowers from late April to August.

The flowers are short spires that grow to a height of 4-6 inches and can vary in colour.

The leaves also vary in colour.

It is a plant that grows well in moist, shady areas.

A Carpet Of Ajuga

Ajuga will spread through the border, but can be divided in Autumn or Spring.

I have found the ajuga to be an interesting addition to my garden with the purple spires peeping through the barked area under my large apple tree.
