Ajuga reptans Mini Mahogany

Common Name:
Mini Mahogany Bugleweed

Description:
Ajuga reptans 'Mini Mahogany' is a compact, evergreen ground cover prized for its rich, deep mahogany foliage that provides year-round interest. In spring and early summer, it produces striking spikes of deep blue to purple flowers, creating a beautiful contrast against its dark, glossy leaves. This low-maintenance plant is perfect for filling gaps between stepping stones, suppressing weeds, or adding texture to rock gardens and borders. Thriving in well-drained soil, it prefers part shade but can tolerate full sun with adequate moisture. It is an excellent choice for Melbourne gardens, adapting well to a variety of conditions while offering a bold splash of colour throughout the seasons.
