Description

Dusky mauve flower spikes appear in summer drawing pollinators to them like magnets, this is a mound-forming, drought tolerant perennial which has soft, downy foliage highly scented with mint and aniseed.

Care Tips

Agastache prefers sunny free-draining soil. They do not require extra feeding - this will only encourage leggy growth. The plants will be stronger and more floriferous if you cut back flower stalks as flowers fade.
