Feathered Friends® 'Pink Pelican' Bugleweed (Ajuga)

(Bugleweed) Soft color and dependable ground coverage come together beautifully in Ajuga Pink Pelican™, a unique variety that adds gentle charm and texture to shaded or partially sunny spaces. Its rosy-pink flower spikes rise above a low mat of glossy, warm copper leaves in spring to early summer, creating a lovely contrast that brightens pathways, borders, and underplantings. The blooms attract bees and butterflies, adding a touch of life and movement to the garden.

This low-growing perennial forms a dense carpet, helping to naturally suppress weeds while filling in bare spots with rich color and texture. Reaching just 4–6 inches tall and 12–18 inches wide, it's perfect for edging, rock gardens, or container combinations. The foliage stays attractive long after the flowers fade, offering year-round appeal in milder climates.

Hardy in USDA Zones 4–9, Pink Pelican™ thrives in part sun to shade and adapts easily to various soil types, as long as they're well-drained. It's deer resistant, low maintenance, and tolerant of occasional foot traffic making it both pretty and practical.

For a soft, romantic splash of color that spreads gracefully and asks for little in return, Ajuga Pink Pelican™ is an easy favorite for gardeners of all levels.
