Hello Claire, Al, Paul & others,
Thanks for all the information and experiences with Agastache. Knew all
of you would come through. No one had mention the minty fragrance of the
plant. Now that I have your experiences I will see about some text book
knowledge on the plant. Does sound interesting and worth pursuing.. perhaps
one or two in the gardens here for trials.
