Agastache 'Apricot Sunrise'
Agastache, often referred to as Giant Hyssop or Hummingbird Mint, is a charming perennial herb that calls North America home, comprising about 30 beautiful species. The hybrid Agastache plants are especially delightful, featuring more vivid flowers and showing greater resilience during winter compared to their wild relatives. These vibrant blooms come in a lovely array of colors, including red, orange, pink, yellow, and white, and they typically grace us with their presence from mid-summer to fall, blooming in dense clusters atop sturdy square stems, all while filling the air with their lovely fragrance. Not only do these flowers catch the eye, but they also attract bees, hummingbirds, and butterflies, making your garden a lively spot.
One standout hybrid, 'Apricot Sunrise,' showcases gorgeous apricot-orange flowers from late June to September, sometimes lasting all the way to frost! This hybrid is the result of a lovely cross between A. coccinea and A. aurantiaca, both native to the sunny southwestern U.S. 'Apricot Sunrise' generally grows to a height of 2-3 feet, and its fragrant leaves can even be used to flavor your favorite cold drinks and teas—how refreshing.
For the best growth, Agastache plants thrive in well-drained soil with average to medium moisture and prefer full sun. They can handle a little light shade, but good soil drainage is essential for their health. Keep in mind that clay soil might not be their best friend, leading to challenges in performance and winter survival. Once they're settled in, these lovely plants can brave dry conditions and heat quite well. Plus, by deadheading the spent flowers, you can encourage even more blooms! Generally, Agastache hybrids are hardy down to USDA Zone 6, so it's wise to position them in protected spots, like southern exposures. Leaving their leaves and flower stems intact over winter provides extra protection. Using sandy or gravelly mulch is a great way to help keep them safe and prevent rot. Enjoy the beauty and charm that Agastache brings to your garden.

Spring Shipping:
Orders are shipped within 7-10 business days. We will email you if there are expected delays.
When you order plants from our nursery, you can expect them to arrive in the best possible condition. Our team carefully packs each order using sturdy, biodegradable packaging materials.
Your plants' appearance may vary depending on the season and their current growth stage. We may cut back the leafy growth of some plants to prepare them for shipment and transplanting.
5 Gallon and Up: Any plant purchased to ship over 5 Gallons will be shipped bare root. This means we will remove the plant from its original pot, remove the soil surrounding the roots, and wrap the roots with a biodegradable plastic bag. This reduces weight and the likelihood of damage during shipping.
Once your plants arrive, it is essential to plant them as soon as possible. This will help them rebound and thrive. If you cannot plant immediately, water regularly and keep the roots off heat-conducting surfaces.
Newly transplanted plants often require more water until their roots are well established. Plan to water them 1-3 times weekly for the first few months.
