  • Description

  • Notes

This is a strikingly beautiful agasatche, with tall spikes of large, tubular, orange, pink, and lavender blossoms, which go from midsummer to through fall, usually to the first frost. Foliage is a lovely grey green, and the entire plant is delightfully, mintily fragrant. Grows about 40 to 48 inches tall and about half as wide. Attacts butterflies and attention. For sunny borders.
