Ajuga, Catlin's Giant has large bronze and purple-green colored leaves adorned with 8" tall beautiful purplish blue flower spikes in spring and summer. Caitlin's Giant will clump until established and then spread to form a dense groundcover. Introduced by John W. Catlin of Pasadena California, this evergreen groundcover grows best in the shade of large trees where grass is difficult to establish. Constant, but well drained, moisture is key to success with most Ajuga.
