Planting young plants
From Early Spring TO Early Spring
Ageratina are easy to grow and young plants can be set in spring in a fertile, moist soil in a sunny position, although several species tolerate partial shade. They are generally pest- and disease-free. They do sometimes look unsightly when the flowers are past their best, so they are often recommended for a wild garden or the back of a border where they are not so visible once they start to fade.
