Know before you buy
The collection features four distinct varieties: Agastache cana, Agastache rupestris, 'Blue Fortune' Agastache, and 'Tango' Agastache.
Yes, the aromatic foliage of Agastache is naturally unappealing to deer and rabbits, making these plants a reliable choice for gardens prone to browsing wildlife.
Absolutely. These cultivars adapt well to container gardening, provided you use a well-draining potting mix and ensure the pots receive full sun.
These plants require excellent drainage to thrive. They prefer sandy or gritty soil types and will struggle in heavy, water-logged clay.
This collection is designed to cover approximately six square feet. Given that mature heights vary between 16 and 54 inches, consider placing the taller varieties toward the back of your garden bed.
Agastache is highly waterwise and drought-tolerant once established. While they need regular moisture during their first growing season, they require very little supplemental water thereafter.
