Agastache
aurantiaca 'Apricot Sunrise' * Hyssop
|
Agastache aurantiaca is
a fragrant native Hyssop of the
Southwest US and Mexico has a great scent and puts on a near continuous
show of flowers. Agastache aurantiaca grows to about 3 feet tall and has a rather
upright habit. The branches a little brittle. It needs
regular irrigation and good drainage. I have lost the Hyssop a number of times in less than ideal
conditions, but keep putting it in gardens because I like the warm colors
and near continuous show. The long slender flowers attract
hummingbirds and the roots attract gophers. Care should be taken.
