Looks like blue porterweed.

Yep, blue porterweed and to top it all off, that's the larger variety. It will get huge if you let it.

Nice easy butterfly plant, tho...

there is a porter weed (I have it) that spreads like a ground cover. I'm not familiar with bugleweed.

And the cuttings root easily. I cut mine back hard 2 x a year so it stays compact. It's a beautiful butterfly plant.

Thanks for the feedback! Yes I looked it up, and it is indeed Porterweed. I was afraid to cut it back, not knowing how to care for it. It is the only blue in my garden, and I really wouldn't want to kill it.

I forgot to mention. Where I live in Port Richey, the afternoon showers tend to pass us by. It gets very very hot and dry. This is the only plant that has seemed to thrive in the hot sun!

It thrives on neglect. In fact, the one you have is considered native, so it can live just on what nature gives it. I've never had one die from underwatering or no fertilizer.

Yes, it is thriving while other plants like gaillardia are dying.

Be careful not to nick the porterweed when mowing. I have had healthy-looking ones suddenly die after obtaining a 1-inch dia. trunk and 6-foot height. They each appeared to have a deep, old injury at the base.
