Flossflowers love well-draining soil, neutral-to-acidic. In containers, ideal growth can be achieved with monthly feeding with a balanced liquid fertilizer. Blooms seem to retain their flower color for an endless duration, so deadheading is typically not necessary. Just remember, plant this monarch "magnet" in full sun so that it can soak in six or more hours of bright light each day. For the pollinators' sake, avoid chemicals as you tend areas where this is grown.

Ageratum has always been a favorite, but never has it spread like this! Monarch Magic is unique in its ability to grow low and flower-covered, but spread to fill borders and boxes with a sea of lavender-purple blooms. The flat and fuzzy blooms cluster together to create perfect perches for monarchs and other pollinators as they take in spring and summer's nectar.
