Common Questions
Can I start ageratum seeds directly into the garden?
Yes, ageratum seeds can be planted indoors or directly into the garden after danger of frost as passed.
How long does it take ageratum to flower?
Typically, ageratum will flower approximately 90 days after sowing seeds.
Do I need to deadhead my ageratum?
Yes, deadhead ageratum flowers regularly during the growing season. Using sharp secateurs or snips cut fading or dead flowers off just above a set of leaves. Removing old flowers regularly will encourage plants to produce more flowers.
Can I encourage my ageratum plants to produce denser flowers?
Yes, pinch out the growing tips of ageratum plants to encourage denser growth with stronger stems and more flowers. Using sharp secateurs or snips remove the top set of leaves, cutting just above a set of lower leaves.
