Ageratum Hawaii Mix
For professional plant growers, one or two applications of B-Nine at 2500ppm will promote deep green foliage and more uniform plants. Hybrids out perform open pollinated varieties, particularly under hot and humid conditions. Ageratum is a sun-loving annual and is excellent for pots and border plantings. Bodger offers Blue Danube and the Hawaii Series both as raw and pelleted seed. Grow in full sun.

P001-0 Blue Blazer F1
The first widely used hybrid Ageratum. Less uniform than Blue Danube. Flower color is a rich, mid-blue. Garden height: 15cm (6in.).

P002-0 Blue Danube? F1
Exceptionally uniform. Each plant is compact and covered with mid-blue flowers. For top quality greenhouse plant production, Blue Danube F1 is an excellent choice and is highly recommended. Garden height: 15cm (6in.)

P003-1 Blue Hawaii
Similar in color but earlier to flower than Blue Danube. All around great performance.
0055 Blue Mink
A popular variety for seed sales to home gardeners. Blue Mink has large, powder-blue flowers on stocky plants. Because it’s a tetraploid, the leaves and flowers are larger than most other varieties. Still, our strain is more dwarf than those of other seed companies. Not recommended for professional growers. Garden height: 15 to 20cm (6 to 8in.)
Hawaii Series F1
The industry leader in seed Ageratum. A very attractive, uniform series with early flowers on compact, tidy plants. Especially good in warm climates. Best color range of any series. Garden height: 15 cm (6in.)

P022 Mix
A formula mixture of all five Hawaii colors (Blue, Royal, Shell Pink, Sky Blue and White).

P006-0 Royal Florida
Our most compact and earliest to bloom hybrid Ageratum. Will require less PGR’s and is excellent for warmer growing conditions, such as in the south.

P004-1 Royal Hawaii
Deeper color than Blue. Rich, deep lavender flower.

P018-1 Shell Pink
Soft pink flowers with a hybrid quality Ageratum habit. Plants match the other colors for height in the pack and garden. Unique addition to the Ageratum class.

P005-0 Sky Blue Hawaii
Light, powder blue flower with excellent plant habit. Soft and elegant color.

P020-1 White Hawaii
The best white Ageratum currently available. Uniform in the pack and garden.
