Digging Dog Nursery perennials

Agastache mexicana
‘Sangria’
at Digging Dog

Mexican Giant Hyssop

Agastache

Lovers of heat, these tough and drought resistant Mint family relatives guarantee terminal spikes adorned with brightly colored, tubular flowers just about all summer long. Agastaches are easily grown in well drained soils, and will bloom more profusely, over an even longer period of time, if the flowering stems are cut back in midseason.

With refreshing lemon-scented elliptical-shaped foliage that can be brewed for tea, oodles of whorled, closely set, red-purple flowers coloring up 12 in. tall spikes and a bushy upright form, tangy ‘Sangria’ can be easily tucked into your garden. Hummingbirds will flock to this brand new Jelitto introduction, originating in our very own Southwest, and in northern Mexico, while Eryngium ‘Blue Glitter’ makes an intriguing sidekick.

Blooms July–October.

Size: 3'–4' high x 18" wide; hardy to zone 7.
