Plant Care
Bronze Beauty Bugleweed is remarkably easy to maintain and requires minimal attention once established. Regular watering during the first growing season helps develop a strong root system. While tolerant of various soil conditions, it performs best in well-draining, consistently moist soil. Trim back spent flower stalks to maintain a tidy appearance and prevent self-seeding.
To control spreading, remove unwanted runners in spring or fall. This plant shows excellent resistance to deer and rabbits, making it ideal for woodland gardens. During extended dry periods, provide supplemental water to maintain the plant’s vibrant foliage color.
Planting Instructions
Plant Bronze Beauty Bugleweed in spring or fall, spacing plants 12-18 inches apart. Dig holes twice as wide as the root ball and at the same depth. Remove the plant from its container and gently loosen the roots. Place in the hole, ensuring the top of the root ball is level with the soil surface.
Fill around the plant with soil, firming gently to remove air pockets. Water thoroughly after planting and apply a 2-inch layer of mulch around the plants, keeping it away from the crown. Continue regular watering until established.
