Hardy Perennial. Evergreen, mat-forming perennial with a ground-hugging habit. Grown for its foliage and delightful violet flowers. Will bloom more freely given some sun, but will also perform well in areas of full shade. Will smother out weeds even in the deep shade. Good for container or windowbox plantings as it will cascade down over the sides.
