Magic™ Mix Mimulus

Magic™ Mix is an F1 monkeyflower grown for a colorful, compact early-season display. This spreading selection is listed at 8–10 inches tall and wide and suits packs, pots, and other small garden spaces. ## Flowers and placement The mix flowers in early to late spring and is classified as an annual by Syngenta. The official product profile describes a compact, floriferous habit and part-shade exposure. Its flowers are sold as a color mix, so the display may include several shades rather than one uniform color. ## Growing conditions Plant in part shade and give it moist, well-drained soil. Keep the soil evenly moist and cool, particularly in warm weather; a light mulch helps conserve moisture. The species-level NC State Extension profile also recommends moist, well-drained soil and regular watering. Syngenta notes that Magic tolerates light frost and lists the Mix at 8–10 inches tall and wide. ## Maintenance Check the soil often and water before the root zone dries out. Remove spent flowers and faded stems to keep the small plant tidy.
