Serena® Blue Angelonia

Serena® Blue is a seed-raised Angelonia angustifolia selected for blue flower spikes and a compact, upright-to-mounded outline. PanAmerican Seed lists it at 16–20 inches tall by 12–14 inches wide, with a long flowering season from late spring through late summer. ## Siting and use The [PanAmerican Seed product page](https://www.panamseed.com/Products/004904608000616/angelonia-serena-blue/) identifies the exact Serena Blue selection and its product code, PAS1141443. It recommends sun and shows the cultivar for landscapes, gardens, and mixed containers. The breeder's [Ball Seed plant information](https://info.ballseed.com/WEBTRACKPLANTINFO.ASPX?PHID=004904608000616&env=P) also describes heat tolerance and seasonal water-wise performance. For species-level growing conditions, [NC State Extension](https://plants.ces.ncsu.edu/plants/angelonia-angustifolia/) recommends full sun and fertile, moist but well-drained soil, while noting tolerance for summer heat and humidity. The tropical perennial is commonly grown as a warm-season annual where it cannot overwinter outdoors. ## Seasonal care Blue spikes rise above narrow green foliage and work in sunny beds or containers. Allow air around the upright clump and do not translate the breeder's 40°F hardiness degree into a USDA zone. ## Maintenance NC State Extension says angelonia needs no deadheading or staking. Water during establishment, then adjust irrigation to weather and container drying.
