Blue mist flower, or wild ageratum is a perennial wildflower that can reach up to 3 feet in height. The leaves are opposite, hairy, ovoid, toothed and have short petioles. The blue to purple flowers occur in flat-topped clusters at the top of the stem. The clusters can be several inches across in width. Mist flower plants arise from a dense system of underground rhizomes, so they can be mildly weedy if introduced to the home garden.Mist flower grows in full sun. The plant prefers WET conditions like those found near shallow ponds and soggy meadows. Bloom time is late summer to early fall. |
