Ageratum (Ageratum Mexicanum Blue) - A large-flowered variety of Ageratum with uniform soft blue flowers. It grows to about 12 inches tall with a powder-puff head. Ageratum Mexicanum is wonderful and easy to grow from flower seeds for either container planting or edging borders. Grow alongside soft pink Ageratum for a rather special effect. Plants prefer a well-drained soil in full sun. One of the best Ageratum flower seeds for uniformity, earliness and all round performance. Plant or transplant after danger of frost. Blooms are extraordinarily long-lived, dead heading is necessary, yet infrequent
