Professional Growing Information I tried growing the Wedgewood Blue Angelface last summer and just loved it. It grew well and was very bushy and flowered all summer. I paired it with white bidens and english lavendar. It looked really nice so I will try it again this year. I will maybe try pairing it with the Meteor Showers verbena this year as I put the lavendar in the ground in the fall.

I love Angelonia, but it had never thrived in my zone 10b garden. I had given up on Angelonia. The other varieties I tried were the small ones, and I noticed that this one was much larger and seemed more robust. I decided to give it another chance, and am so glad I did! This plant has been an excellent performer, with large, abundant, lilac and white blooms. seeing the success with this Wedgewood Blue, I decided to try two of the White. Hopefully I will see the same success with those. I love how these are striking, non invasive plants add vertical color to my garden. They look great at the base of taller plants, like my roses.

I have few options at the local nursery. Wedgewood was the only PW angelonia, eh not great but what the heck it's PW. Later that summer it was putting on a great show in ground part sun. It beefed up and put out several flower stalks at a time. I teamed it with a short red abutilon, whiteout verbena and snowdrift petunia. Very pretty and aptly name as it looks like china. The color isn't saturated but the contrasting white made it visible from the house. An added bonus is that my local bugs don't eat it. Low maintenance high return plant.

This is about the best angelonia I've tried. My garden has clayey soil, and the spot they were in got direct sun much of the day. It might have had some shade, but not much. When other plants were wilting in heat, this one didn't! I plan to buy some for this year.
