Ajuga Chocolate Chip Bugleweed is a fast spreading groundcover that can be planted 6-9 inches apart for prompt covering. Take caution not to cover the crown of the plant with soil as this will cause the plant to rot. Refrain from planting too close to un-edged flowerbeds or lawns as it grows very quickly. The Bugleweed may be used in container planting as the foliage will grow and spill over the sides for an abundant appearance. Great in contrast against light colored containers.
