Possibly a variegated cultivar of Ajuga, a type of mint, or a similar groundcover.
Scientific Name: Uncertain without further identifying features, but potentially 'Ajuga reptans' 'Variegata' or a related species/cultivar.
Plant Family: Lamiaceae (Mint Family) or possibly Crassulaceae (Stonecrop Family). The leaf arrangement strongly suggests Lamiaceae, but the succulence could hint at Crassulaceae. Given the image, Lamiaceae is a strong possibility.
Native Region: Without a precise identification, the native region cannot be specified. However, many variegated groundcovers or ornamental plants are cultivars of species native to various temperate regions.
Brief Description
A small herbaceous plant with variegated leaves, typically green with white or cream margins. The leaves appear somewhat succulent and are arranged oppositely on the stem.
Care Instructions
This plant, likely a cultivar of Ajuga or a similar groundcover, generally prefers partial to full shade, especially in hotter climates. It thrives in well-drained, consistently moist soil. Water regularly, especially during dry periods, but avoid overwatering, which can lead to root rot. It is relatively low maintenance and can spread to form a mat. Fertilize sparingly in spring if desired.
