    I buy these seeds every year, however, they have never grown for me. I end up buying starts at local nurseries. No more seeds!

    I lover the tall blue ageratum seeds I purchased from Botanical Interests. The foliage on the plants is lush with lots of branching and the seeds germinated well.

    Looking forward to planting and seeing these beauties grow. Easy to grow. The flowers in the picture are from my garden today. I live in Zone 9 and look how healthy they are. 100° today.

    These were so pretty and delightful! The purple is almost a neon color. They lasted all summer and just looked gorgeous. They also made pretty pressed flowers. Small, bright, and not fussy --- I highly recommend!

    These larger ageratum are wonderful in planters initially as they fillers but later on, as the spillers in pots. Lots of blue and they last a long time. Just starting to need to dead head and they've been blooming since early May!
