PanAmerican Seed describes it as a shorter, manageable member of its Serenita® F1 series, with color that holds well in high heat and light. ## Form and placement [PanAmerican Seed](https://www.panamseed.com/Products/004906262000724/angelonia-serenita-sky-blue/) lists plants at 12–14 inches tall and wide, flowering in late spring, summer, and late summer. Its compact scale fits sunny borders, mass plantings, and containers. PanAmerican Seed distinguishes this selection’s lighter blue from Serena Blue and Serenita Purple; the flower color is a defining feature of this cultivar. ## Growing conditions Grow in full sun for best flowering; PanAmerican Seed’s series brochure also supports partial sun. Angelonia is a warm-season tender perennial usually planted as an annual in regions with frost. The [PanAmerican Seed Angelonia brochure](https://www.panamseed.com/MarketingPDF.aspx?blobid=1019) reports Serenita performs well in very hot, humid conditions, and its landscape brochure describes the series as drought tolerant.

No cultivar-specific patent number or status was verified. ## Maintenance Water during establishment and extended dry periods, particularly in containers. The breeder describes the series as low maintenance and generally manageable without much plant growth regulation. Remove damaged growth as needed and replace plants after frost in climates where they do not overwinter.
