Description

A true pollinator magnet! Ageratum 'Monarch Magic' erupts with soft blue clouds of flowers from late spring to the first frosts, drawing butterflies in day after day.

This variety spreads and trails, filling borders, pots and baskets with ease. It forms a smooth carpet of blue that brightens beds and softens edges, creating a full, polished look with very little work.

The flowering season is long. While many bedding plants fade by midsummer, this one keeps going through heat, short dry spells and unsettled weather. It is drought tolerant, dependable and ideal for low-maintenance planting schemes.

Pollinators love it, especially butterflies, which flock to the blooms throughout summer. Planting it adds movement and interest to any outdoor space.

Use it to trail, cover ground or fill gaps. It performs well wherever it is planted and stays neat for months. Ageratum 'Monarch Magic' offers easy, long-lasting colour and effortless impact, making it perfect for gardeners who want strong results with simple care.

Top Tips

Unpack the plants straight away. Remove all packaging and give each plug a gentle water.

Place them somewhere bright and frost-free to recover from their journey.

Care Information

Growing On

  • Keep the plugs in small pots or trays for two to three weeks.
  • Use a good quality multi-purpose or potting compost.
  • Water regularly, but avoid waterlogging.
  • Keep them in good light to encourage strong, compact growth.
  • Protect from cold nights and frost.

Planting Out

  • Harden the plants off before planting by placing them outside during the day for a week.
  • Plant out once the risk of frost has passed.
  • Choose a sunny spot for the best colour and flowering performance.
  • Space the plants to allow them to spread and trail.
  • Water well after planting to help them establish.
Delivery Information

Please allow us 3-5 working days to dispatch your order. Pre-ordered items will be sent as soon as possible after the date quoted and we'll generally ship your entire order with your pre-ordered items. When your order is dispatched, we'll send you another email with details of how to track it.

Most orders are sent on a fully-tracked courier service with Yodel. To avoid perishable items being stuck at depots and deteriorating, no signature is required, and our courier is asked to leave your order in a safe place on your property.

We'll send a tracking link when we dispatch your order, so you know when its due to arrive. Please note, once delivered we cannot be held responsible for loss or theft from your property. If you have any specific delivery instructions, please let us know - there's an option to enter a short message for the courier at the checkout.

Smaller, lighter, single-item orders may be sent through the post with Royal Mail - in which case no tracking is available.

Our experienced nursery team will always send your plants nursery fresh in the perfect condition to thrive when you plant them, so although most plants are very tough and will not be affected by all but the most extreme frosts or heatwaves, we avoid dispatching the most perishable plants if extreme weather is forecast, or over Bank Holiday weekends.

Please note, we cannot guarantee delivery on a certain day or time. Delivery to outlying postcode areas may take 1-2 days longer, dependent on your location.
