What Does the Ajuga Feathered Friends™ Consist Of?

The Ajuga Feathered Friends™ series consists of (so far) four small-leaved and three large-leaved Ajuga with ranges of bright colors just in time to make summer a little happier and brighter.

A Distinctive New Generation With Ajuga Feathered Friends™

The Feathered Friends™ are low maintenance, hardy and programmable, which of course means there are fresh plants to sell all year round. All these advantages combined with the fact that they are part of their own label program make it a very interesting variety for breeding.

“After the introduction of the most colorful Sempervivum ChickCharms® series, I really wanted to get started with the bright colors of this Ajuga Feathered Friends® series”.-  Marlies van Veldhuijzen Sierteelt

Not only do Ajugas sell their own current plugs, but the company also gives an attractive trade the opportunity to try the plants once, making this a great way to introduce them to this impressive series.
