Ajuga Dixie Chip, Ajuga 'Dixie Chip' PPAF, has green, cream, and rose-purple variegated foliage that will create a spectacular display for your garden when planted in mass. In mid to late spring, violet blue flowers appear above the low spreading foliage. 'Dixie Chip' PPAF is a petite variegated Ajuga which was introduced by ItSaul Plants. It forms a tight habit making it useful for erosion control on slopes and also as a weed suppressing ground cover for the landscape. It is relatively carefree, however, it can be invasive. Ajuga 'Dixie Chip' will do best in a shaded area but will adapt to morning sun. It prefers moist soil with a good drainage but will tolerate moderately dry areas. Do avoid soggy conditions. This Ajuga looks great in rock gardens, as a border plants, in mass plantings and is great for preventing erosion. Butterflies and hummingbirds are defiantly attracted to Ajuga, not to mention being deer resistant and a low allergen. If one is looking for a perennial ground cover to exceed in a hard to grow shady area, Ajuga is the way to go.
