Some call ajuga invasive. The beloved Leandra calls him her favorite. (Beloved is not descriptive enough. All my children are beloved. She is better described as Leandra, the lovely and talented, middle child.)
I’ve grown ajuga in 3 different places in the yard. He was just OK in the other places, but he loves it here. All the water from my front yard either seeps through the basement walls (a huge problem last year, but I’m not talking about that) or drains along this path. I think all that extra moisture is what he really likes. The lighting is good here too, about half sun and half shade.
Ajuga is a quick spreader, so if you are in the area and you want some, let me know. He is like strawberries in the way he sends out babies on runners every spring. I have to do something with the babies. They would overtake their neighbors if I let them. The babies start putting out roots in anticipation of touching the ground. Once the roots are 1/4″-1/2″ long, cut the runners from the main plant, and root them in potting soil. It’s a lot easier than waiting for them to get settled into the garden and then digging them up. Again, let me know if you want some.
Last year I didn’t get a chance to deadhead the ajuga. It’s at least a 4 hour job. I did notice a few seedlings in the area that year. So don’t say I didn’t warn you. Remember some call it invasive. Leandra and I still like it.
A few other tidbits about ajuga:
- Evergreen with a purple tint during winter
- Vole resistant (I’m assuming this since it is still alive)
- Deer resistant (I know this for sure)
