Ajuga reptans 'Rosea' - BP003C Packs

Ajuga reptans 'Rosea' is a charming groundcover perennial, valued for its spreading habit and delicate pink flower spikes. Unlike the more common blue-flowered forms of Ajuga, 'Rosea' offers soft shell-pink blooms that rise above glossy green foliage in late spring to early summer. The contrast between its pale flowers and rich green leaves gives it a graceful, refined appearance well suited to shaded borders, woodland gardens, or pondside planting. Its creeping growth habit allows it to form a dense, weed-suppressing carpet that also helps retain soil moisture and prevent erosion.

This cultivar grows best in partial to full shade, though it will tolerate some sun in moist soils. It thrives in humus-rich, well-drained soil, spreading by runners to gradually form wide mats of attractive foliage and floral display. Ideal for underplanting shrubs, filling gaps in shaded areas, or softening the edges of garden paths, 'Rosea' is an excellent choice for both ornamental and practical groundcover use. It requires very little care once established and is appreciated for its resilience, making it suitable for gardeners of all experience levels. Its soft colouring and dense foliage make it a subtle yet effective addition to naturalistic and informal planting schemes.
