Small, glossy, oval leaves that are chocolate in color with burgundy highlights make up the foliage, which the blossoms rise just above. It will eventually develop into a dense mat of lovely rosettes. Ajuga reptans is admired for its ability to spread quickly and create a vibrant groundcover that will flourish in shaded regions where grass struggles to grow. It is ideal for planting between stepping stones, between cracks in walls, and in rock gardens because it is typically evergreen.
