Description
Ajuga reptans 'Blueberry Muffin' is a vigorous, low-growing groundcover that forms dense mats of bronze-green foliage with bold blue flower spikes in spring. More compact and colorful than standard varieties, it's ideal for covering shaded areas, controlling erosion, or planting between stepping stones. Once established, it tolerates drought, foot traffic, and poor soils while adding multi-season interest with its foliage and flowers.
- Hardiness USDA Zones are 4 to 9
- Thrives in Part Shade to Full Shade
- Typically grows 4–6 inches tall and spreads 12–18 inches wide
Note: Ships potted. Plants may appear dormant in cooler seasons but return vigorously in spring. Avoid soggy soil and give it room to spread.
