Agastache ‘Summer Sunset’
Masses of deep orange hummingbird magnets grace this excellent perennial hyssop! Agastache 'Summer Sunset' is a firey winner with deep orange flowers.
Agastache are incredibly useful for clouds of colour through the summer months. ‘Summer Sunset’ has outstanding dense, deep orange spikes produced in masses on plants about one and a half feet high. The Summer Series have sepals that remain in colour and do not brown like other agastache giving these cultivars a much longer season of interest. Even without a single flower there is still colour! Provide full sun and good drainage.
