Question
Hello: I came upon this plant in a somewhat shady area of my large garden. (Albany NY). I'm guessing it is ageratum conyzoides. It's about 3' x 2.5'. Is it a good pollinator plant? Thank you for your help!
Answer
Dear akitalady, the plant looks like Ageratina altissima (white snakeroot), a species that was formerly included in the genus Eupatorium. It is common in rich, shady soils in the northeast. Best wishes.
