If you are after a pop of deep color to cover your ground， this is the perennial for you! Picture dark-green foliage splashed with chocolate and burgundy highlights blanketing your landscape and then exploding with deep blue ， 2-inch flower spikes from early spring to early summer. Butterflies will love this Ajuga (commonly called Bugleweed) and so will your neighbors! While other Ajugas have shorter， thicker leaves， this variety tends to offer taller， slightly more slender leaves. But don't let the leaves fool you; this variety is also commonly selected because its dwarf， low growth habits makes it perfect for smaller areas needing a hardy， weed-choking groundcover. Chocolate Chip tolerates light foot traffic and ends out offering a brilliant contrast as a border edging ， around shrubs and trees and even between pavers/stepping stones . When working with Chocolate Chip， your biggest challenge will be deciding where you don't want to use her. While her preference is a partially shaded ， well-drained and loamy soil， she's perfectly content in a variety of locations including full sun where her foliage gives its very best show of color， provided you supply her with ample moisture. Gardener Tips Avoid waterlogged situations because Chocolate Chip does not perform well in that environment. To test the drainage of your soil， dig a small 10 inch hole， fill it with water and observe the length of time it takes to drain. If， after a few hours， the soil has not drained， it may not be an ideal location for Chocolate Chip Ajuga.
