Ajuga reptans
An evergreen perennial, it spreads by means of long, leafy runners. Spikes of purplish-blue flowers grow to from dense mats of dark green leaves with purple highlights. It is sometimes confused with Selfheal, however on this plant the flowers are arranged more tightly at the top of the stem.
In damp woods, hedge banks and meadows throughout the UK.
Bugle continues to be common in its preferred habitats.
