Full Shade to Partial Shade (0 - 4 Hours Of Direct Sunlight)Mature Height 4 InchesMature Spread 18 InchesGrowing Zones 4 - 9The Feathered Friends™ line of Ajugas has shaken up the world of ground covers. The line includes variations in leaf shape and color not seen before in Ajugas. Pleasant Pheasant Ajuga has gorgeous coppery stained foliage and bright violet flowers early in the summer. This dependable garden workhorse is tough enough to tolerate the cold winters in USDA zone 4, while remaining evergreen in the warmer zones 8 and 9. Plant Pleasant Pheasant in dark corners of the garden to add bright contrast. The quick-spreading Feathered Friends™ line is great as a ground cover and can tolerate light foot traffic. You can also use Pleasant Pheasant as a low-maintenance filler or spiller element in containers and hanging baskets. Deer rarely cause long-term damage to Ajuga as the plants quickly regrow from any type of pruning. Pleasant Pheasant is resistant to most pests and diseases. Feathered Friends™ Pleasant Pheasant Ajuga CarePlant Pleasant Pheasant in shady areas of the yard. Ajuga will tolerate a wide range of soil types and pH levels. Well-draining soil year-round is an absolute must to prevent root problems. In the colder growing zones, Ajuga may take a while to reappear in the spring, although in warmer climates (zones 5-9), it is semi-evergreen. Ajuga is fairly drought resistant after it is established, although it will need consistent watering the first season or two to settle in. Lightly cut back Ajuga to keep it tidy and within its growing boundaries. The flowers appear in late spring and are self-cleaning, meaning they do not require deadheading. Pollinators of all kinds love the short flower spikes. Divide Ajuga every 3-4 years to rejuvenate growth while multiplying your stock of plants. When transplanting, carefully extract all the roots. Either replant extracted plants immediately or pot them up in shallow containers for planting later. Feathered Friends™ Pleasant Pheasant Ajuga SpacingAjuga plants are quick to spread and will fill up areas of the garden quickly. While the mature height of Pleasant Pheasant is a mere 4 inches, the spread can reach 18-24 inches within a couple of years. Space plants 18 inches apart to create a dense ground cover.FEATHERED FRIENDS™ Pleasant Pheasant Ajuga InformationUSDA Hardiness Zones: 4 - 9Plant Type: PerennialsLight Exposure: Full Shade to Partial Shade (0 - 4 Hours Of Direct Sunlight)Mature Height: 4 InchesMature Spread: 18 InchesSpacing: 4 InchesHabit: SpreadingFlower Color(s): PurpleFlower Description: Purple ShadesBloom Period: SpringFoliage Type: Evergreen, HerbaceousFoliage Color(s): GreenFoliage Description: Coppery FoliageSeasonal Interest: Spring FloweringWatering: AverageResists: DeerTolerates: N/AAttracts: N/AContainer Role: Uses: BordersFeatures: Foliage InterestBrand: Common Name: FEATHERED FRIENDS™ Pleasant Pheasant™ AjugaOther Name(s): BugleweedScientific Name: Ajuga 'Pleasant Pheasant' | All Plants > New Plants For 2024 > New Perennials For 2024 Plant Addicts AJUPHQT
