Ajuga Sparkler
A sparkly new variegated Ajuga. ‘Sparkler’ has thick, dark green, shiny foliage covered in creamy-white splashes that light up the floor of a garden like nothing else. Come winter, the variegated foliage takes on amazing pink tones. Warm weather with new growth brings out even more variegation. ‘Sparkler’ is the most vigorous, variegated Ajuga in our collection. An awesome accent or foil in containers, as a ground-cover or as an edging for the border. Lovely blue flowers.
