Bugleweed is a robust ground cover that spreads rapidly through runners. From April to June, dense spikes of blue-purple flowers rise above the dark green, glossy foliage. The plant is evergreen and forms a continuous carpet within a single growing season.

Guía de cuidados

Plant in partial shade or full shade in moisture-retentive soil. Bugleweed tolerates most soil types but prefers a humus-rich substrate. Water regularly during dry spells, especially in the first year. The plant spreads vigorously — control growth by removing runners that venture too far.

Consejos de poda

Pruning is not strictly necessary. Mow or trim the plant back after flowering if you prefer a tidier carpet. Remove unwanted runners at the edges to prevent the plant from colonizing adjacent borders.
