Bring rich color to the garden from spring through fall with Ajuga Feathered Friends™ 'Raspberry Wren' PPAF, a striking bugleweed selected for its vivid raspberry-red foliage and dependable, low-growing habit. New leaves emerge in brilliant shades of raspberry and burgundy, creating an eye-catching carpet that deepens in color as the season progresses. In spring, short spikes of deep blue flowers rise above the foliage, attracting bees and other early pollinators.
This vigorous perennial spreads to form a dense ground cover that helps suppress weeds while adding long-lasting color to borders, woodland gardens, pathways, containers, and beneath shrubs. It thrives in partial shade but also performs well in full sun where soil remains consistently moist. Once established, it tolerates short periods of drought better than many traditional ajugas.
Feathered Friends™ 'Raspberry Wren' is prized for its colorful foliage throughout the growing season, making it valuable even when not in bloom. It is also resistant to deer and rabbits, making it an excellent choice for low-maintenance landscapes.
