Description

A very lovely, choice order plant and entirely "at home" in the cottage garden. Plants are quick to establish and produce many branched stems with dense spikes of rosy-pink, 1in.long flowers during mid to late summer. Flowers in its first year but really does become stunning from the second year onwards, and being an Agastache, it possesses wonderful aromatic foliage. Loved by bees and butterflies
