What is this plant called
Anyone know for sure what I have here?

Ellen H on Oct 06, 2013It is eupatorium coelestinum, also known as hardy ageratum, or blue mistflower. It blooms in late summer/early fall. Could be considered invasive unless you love it (I do) - the roots are quite shallow, making it very easy to pull out if it comes up where you don't want it. Mine grows quite tall - did you pinch yours back?Helpful Reply
