Ageratum

Ageratum

Wholesale Ageratum, also known as Floss Flower & Whiteweed, is a soft, fluffy filler flower often used to add delicate texture and gentle colour to floral designs. It has small clustered blooms that work well in garden-style arrangements, summer weddings and informal bouquets. 

Ageratum is especially useful when a softer alternative to stronger filler flowers is needed. It brings a light, airy appearance and works beautifully with seasonal blooms.

Other Information about Wholesale Ageratum 

 

  • When to order? We would recommend delivery 2-3 days before the event to allow time for conditioning and preparation 
  • Handle gently, as the flower heads can bruise 
  • Best used as a soft filler in garden-style summer and wedding designs 
  • Add to bolder summer flowers such as scabious and larkspur 
  • If delivered 'dry,' re-cut stems and put into water straight away, as Ageratum wilt quickly. 
  • Ageratum will last longer arranged in water than in floral foam 
  • Stems are too soft for most wired work

Conditioning and Care 

To get the best from your wholesale cut ageratum, please read the care instructions below carefully:

  • Cut the stems at a 45-degree angle with a sharp knife.
  • Strip any foliage from below the water line.
  • Fill sterilised buckets with cold water and add flower food.
  • Place the ageratum in the buckets.
  • Leave overnight to condition before using.

Never leave cut flowers in direct sunlight, near a radiator, in a draft or near fruit. The gas used to ripen fruit will harm most flowers. Keep the ageratum in a cool place and always keep it out of the way of children.
