Ajuga Feathered Friends™ 'Fancy Finch' (Bugleweed)

Ajuga Feathered Friends™ 'Fancy Finch' is an evergreen perennial groundcover plant perfect for a variety of gardens. As part of the Feathered Friends™ cultivar series, 'Fancy Finch' has improved vigor and hardiness over other varieties of Ajuga, and the 'Fancy Finch' cultivar is noted for its multi-color rosettes of foliage, ranging from greens to yellows to bronze-tinted purples, which add long-lasting color to the landscape year-round.

Ajuga produces small spikes of cobalt blue flowers through the spring and summer, which attract pollinators and butterflies, and add additional color to the garden. 'Fancy Finch' can thrive in hard-to-grow areas beneath trees and shrubs, thanks to its part-shade tolerance, and can grow effectively as groundcover in a wide variety of well-draining soil types if provided with consistent moisture.

Note: Care should be taken in choosing a good planting location for Ajuga of any kind, as it has been listed as invasive in woodland environments in several states due to its tendency to spread and its dense foliage, which can crowd out native plants.
