   " I had been searching locally for a Gold Dust Aucuba for several months but they don't seem to sell them in the Daytona Beach area.  I reluctantly decided to purchase one online and was very pleased when a good sized plant arrived in great shape.  It's now thriving in a planter on my 11th floor condo walkway."

Catlins Giant Ajuga
Ajuga Reptans 'Catlins Giant'

A dense, rapidly spreading groundcover which features low rosettes of large, variegated purple-bronze foliage and profuse deep blue-purple flowers on spikes up to 8-10" tall in early Spring. An excellent groundcover for shady areas where grass will not grow. May also be grown on banks or slopes, under trees or under and around shrubs. Grow in average, moist but well-drained soil. Prefers some shade in southern zones. Plants may be mowed on high setting after blooming in order to remove spent flower spikes and to tidy the appearance of the planting.
