Synonym(s) Eupatorium coelestinum Common name hardy ageratum; mistflower Family asteraceae Life cycle perennial (Z4-11) Flowers blue (late summer-fall) Size 2' Light sun-part shade Cultural notes ordinary garden soil The clear blue flowers, which arrive in late summer, are most welcome in our summer-weary garden. I'm not sure why this plant is not more popular - it spreads a little by its roots, but isn't agressive in our garden. The other blue (pompom) flowers in the picture above belong to its neighbor, devil's bit scabious.

In our garden, this plant grows in the following area: side garden
