Angelonia

New to most gardeners but earning rave reviews, angelonia blooms continuously from spring until frost. Showy spikes of blue, purple, pink, or white blossoms appear atop 12-18 inch plants. Angelonia makes an excellent bedding plant. It’s also great in pots and window boxes and provides long-lasting cut flowers. Give it lots of sun and moist, well-drained soil. It loves the heat.
