Description

(FlossFlower) Monarch Magic™ Ageratum sure lives up to its name, as it is one of the monarch butterfly's favorite plants to visit! This ageratum features bright lavender flower clusters that stand out amongst dense green foliage. The fringed flowers resemble a snowflake shape, giving the plant a unique look. It is a vigorous grower, growing in a spreading habit that can reach a maximum height of 6-12 inches and a maximum width of 8-16 inches. Also known as FlossFlower, this Ageratum grows best in full sun to part sun areas. Its aggressive growing habit makes for a great mass planting, groundcover, or garden border. It also looks great in its own in a container on the patio. Monarch Magic™ Ageratum requires moderate watering throughout the growing season. We also recommend feeding your annuals once a week with a water-soluble fertilizer. If you're looking for a great addition to your butterfly garden, give Monarch Magic™ Ageratum a try!
