Ajuga – Making sure your Ajuga is in the right place in your yard - Locate ajuga in either sun or partial shade in well-drained soil. Soil must drain well, however, because ajuga is prone to rots and fungal diseases that are fostered by soggy soil.

Using Ajuga
Types of ajuga with multi-colored leaves are somewhat better used as accents rather than for covering large areas. Like most groundcovers, ajuga makes a good living mulch under shrubs where it discourages weeds and protects soil.

Problems of Ajuga
Soil-dwelling fungi cause this serious disease, which can kill plants within a few days. To prevent the spread to nearby areas covered with ajuga, spray the uninfected plants with a garden sulfur fungicide according to label instructions.
