This charming plant thrives best when nestled in the back of flower beds, reaching a height and width of three feet.

While it’s low maintenance, taking a moment to deadhead spent blooms can encourage even more flowers to bloom. If your soil is already rich, you can choose whether or not to use a general fertilizer in spring and summer to boost flower production. Keeping around two inches of mulch will also do wonders. After the first frost, cut it back right to the ground and add some mulch for winter protection. The beautiful part is that once established, this plant will reseed itself, and you can easily transplant the seedlings to other spots in your garden.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Henry Duelberg Salvia has an interesting discovery story too.

This warm-season grass grows in lovely clumps and usually reaches about 3 feet in height. When flowering, it showcases delicate, pink-tinged flower panicles that can elevate the plant's height to 6 feet. In autumn, the medium green leaves bring some warmth to the landscape as they transition to vibrant yellow with hints of orange, eventually fading to a soft tan-beige in winter.

Pruning during winter encourages a bushier, more compact shape, and you can safely cut back the plant to about 1 foot from the base or around 2 feet shorter than your desired height. Just remember to remove any deadwood in spring.

You can often spot this lovely plant in a variety of habitats here in Texas, from moist open areas and low woods to thickets, swamps, upland sinkhole ponds, river bottomlands, and along the edges of streams and ponds.

It's important to ensure good soil drainage, as these plants may struggle to survive winter in heavy clay soils that hold too much moisture. Once they’ve established themselves, they can handle heat and moderate drought conditions quite well. Removing spent blooms encourages further flowering. Typically, Agastache hybrids are winter hardy to at least USDA Zone 6. In locations where winter might pose a challenge, it's wise to plant them in sheltered spots (like southern exposures) and to leave leaf and flower stems intact over the winter for added protection.

If you’re concerned about winter hardiness, it's a good idea to place them in sheltered spots (like southern exposures) and leave their leaves and flower stems intact throughout the winter for that extra layer of protection. Using sandy or gravelly mulches can also help safeguard the plants and prevent rot. Just a quick heads up: hybrids grown from seed might not produce true offspring, so keep that in mind.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 0px; padding: 0px;\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eHeight: 2’-3'\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eSpread: 1.5’-2'\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eBloom: March-September\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eLight: Full Sun\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eWater: Medium\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eZone: 5-9\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eOrigin: Central U.S. and Canada (hybrid) \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Native Gardeners","offers":[{"title":"4\"","offer_id":44081057825008,"sku":"","price":7.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1 Gallon","offer_id":40834349400229,"sku":"SH-30000","price":16.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"2 Gallon","offer_id":42830928576752,"sku":"SH-30001","price":30.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0467\/3113\/3093\/products\/Agastache1.png?v=1731306383"},{"product_id":"butterfly-weed","title":"Butterfly Weed","description":"\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAsclepias tuberosa\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 0px; padding: 0px;\"\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.wildflower.org\/plants\/result.php?id_plant=ASTU\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eAsclepias tuberosa\u003c\/a\u003e, also known as butterfly weed, is a wonderful perennial plant native to Texas.

This charming plant typically grows in a delightful clump ranging from 1 to 2.5 feet tall and showcases clusters (umbels) of bright, cheerful orange to yellow-orange flowers perched atop hairy stems with narrow, lance-shaped leaves.

The seed pods are a favorite in dried flower arrangements, and this plant has a wonderfully long bloom period, spanning from late spring to summer. The flowers are a delightful source of nectar for many butterflies, while the leaves serve as a nutritious food source for monarch butterfly larvae (caterpillars). \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 0px; padding: 0px;\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 0px; padding: 0px;\"\u003eButterfly weed is a breeze to grow in average, dry to medium, well-drained soils under full sun.

However, be patient; they may take 2 to 3 years to bloom. If seed pods aren’t removed before they burst open, mature plants can happily self-seed throughout the landscape.
