This form of Hyssop fills a different niche in the landscape than other Agastaches because of its dwarf, compact habit and vibrant peachy apricot colored flower spikes which are produced all summer long. Butterflies and hummingbirds find it irresistible! It is perfect for growing in rock gardens, flower borders, cottage gardens, herb gardens, butterfly gardens, and large containers. The grey-green foliage is both beautiful and functional; the anise scented leaves can be used to make tea.
