Jeff--
The Ageratum is a biennial--so will self-seed.

I only have this one plant that made it through the WS'ing.
It is rather tall--and wide-branching. The color is pretty intense blue.

Years ago, I had a tall. perennial Ageratum. It self sowed all over.
In the spring--I would pick out the seedlings and put them anywhere i wanted to.
They are easy to ID--as the seedling's leaves look just like the adult ones.

Here is another picture of Karen's Ageratum--a bit wider angle....
I will save every dried up head i can get my hands on....

It is growing amid one of my Wassabi Coleus clumps. I LOVE this Coleus!
You HAVE TO grow this Coleus next year!!! The color is amazing--and goes
with everything... I can start some cuttings for you now--if you want to
deal with them until next spring...They grow fast and get quite large. +
You will have to re-pinch it more than once...
