Ajuga reptans ‘Mahogany’ – Carpet Bugle

A robust and vigorous carpet bugle, ‘Mahogany’ forms a dense, spreading mat of shiny dark mahogany foliage that provides rich, year-round color in the garden. In spring and early summer, bright blue flower spikes rise above the dark leaves in a striking contrast.
