Plant Features
Sparkler Ajuga Plant boasts variegated scalloped leaves, sometimes appearing sharply serrated, that are a vivid, bright green, splashed with what appears, at first glance, to be white paint. Shiny and quite attention-grabbing, our Sparkler Bugleweed seems to produce its own light and would be perfect along a shaded walkway or to light up a bed with dark foliage. Known to attract butterflies, its flowers are a deep, rich, bluish violet.
