I just happened to see a packet of Agastache seeds this past spring, for
a variety that is deep rose-pink, which I did buy and put up, and am
very happy to report that I have about 15 small plants now waiting to go
into the ground; some of them have flowered and are lovely, with
tube-like blossoms, which a hummingbird braved coming onto the porch to
get at yesterday.
I am in zone 5, USA, mountains, so we have frost earlier and later than
in many other zone 5's, and this plant won't be perennial here, I'm
told. I'm going to put it in a well drained sunny location.
