‘Chocolate Chip’ bugleweed (Ajuga) is a fool-proof ground cover that boasts eclectic evergreen foliage with spikes true-blue flowers in spring and summer. It’s drought-tolerant, can handle nearly any amount of sun exposure, and suppresses weeds as it grows in the garden. Its ability to handle tough-to-grow sites means it can grow easily along with the rugged ice plant (Delosperma). Hot Cakes® ‘Pumpkin Perfection’ ice plant is known for its bright, pure colors and outstanding performance in hot, sunny spots. We adore the juicy, bright orange hues of this variety, which perfectly complement the blues in ‘Chocolate Chip’ bugleweed. Let this duo effortlessly add color and life to the garden, all without lifting a finger!
