"Pretty in Pink" Instant Flower Garden POTTING PAL Variety: Ageratum (Ageratum mexicanum).
General Installation and Watering - Fill the container with potting soil to within 1/2" of the top. Cut each seeded mat if required to fit the round planting container. Place the round disc seeded mat section over the soil and water liberally being careful not to over saturate.
Special Considerations - If you prefer, customize your flower garden. It is so easy. Using scissors, cut the seeded flower discs into any size or shape desired. Or, use a cut section to fill a window box or other container.
Where to Plant: - Full Sun (6+ hours of direct sunlight).
What I Can Expect - The Instant Flower Garden® Pink Ageratum flower seeds will germinate in 1 to 2 weeks depending upon conditions and soil temperature. Patience is necessary in this phase. Cool evenings and overcast days can delay seed germination. Then, after the second set of leaves unfold, some thinning may be necessary to avoid crowding and allow for stronger mature plants. Expect the Pink Ageratum flowers to grow to a height of 10 to 12 inches (25cm - 30cm) and continue blooming throughout the season.
Gardener's Note: In order to achieve optimal growing conditions, it is best to plant this Pink Ageratum Instant Flower Garden after the last frost of Spring in your growing area and the soil warms up too. Germinates one (1) - two (2) weeks. Patience is necessary in this phase.
