Ageratum

We grow Ageratum in two heights. The shorter 6 to 8 inch type makes a great edging plant and the taller form is a good blue colored plant for in a garden bed or a pot. The tall variety was originally bred for cut flower use and will continue to produce stems for a long period during the summer.

This is a plant that does well in full sun or up to about one half shade. It's water needs are average and it isn't particular about soil.

This plant responds well to adequate fertilizer.
