Where It Grows Best
Ageratum thrives in full sun to partial shade, making it a versatile plant for both sunny spots and slightly shaded areas in your garden or patio. With its compact, bushy growth, it’s perfect for containers, hanging baskets, or as a border plant. This low-maintenance beauty enjoys well-draining soil and, once established, is moderately drought-tolerant. It blooms beautifully throughout the summer, bringing cheerful color that will last until fall.

Care Instructions

• Water: Regular watering is needed to keep the soil moist, but it can tolerate short dry spells once established.

• Sunlight: Thrives in full sun to partial shade for the best blooms.

• Soil: Prefers well-draining soil; it adapts well to a variety of soil types.

• Maintenance: Regular deadheading will encourage continuous blooming and help keep the plant tidy.

• Hardiness: Annual in most climates, though it may re-seed in some areas.

Expect abundant clusters of delicate blooms and watch as pollinators like bees and butterflies visit to enjoy the vibrant flowers.
