I love this plant. I've been growing it in my rock gardens in Boston for about 3 yrs. It's a great year round plant because of it's beautiful shiny dark plum colored foliage (almost black by the early fall) and deep purple flowers in late Spring. It provides an outstanding contrast to almost all other plants.

Dark as night foliage with gorgeously scalloped leaves. A knock-out in patio pots, combos, and as a striking accent with white, gold or light colored plants. Deer-resistant.

Looks beautiful and is one of the only ground covers that REALLY crowds out weeds. Very easy to keep under control

What fabulous foliage for year long color! Pairs nicely with Magic Carpet Spiraea in spring/sumer & Euphorbia 'Efanthia' in fall/winter

I adore ajugas but most fail to take hold year after year, we salvaged one year before from a pot in Autumn and had a gorgeous ground plant all this year....hope it's still with me next year too! Gorgeous Color!
