Notes

'Garden Leader Blue' Bill Williams Mountain giant hyssop (Agastache 'Garden Leader Blue') is a perennial for borders, pollinator gardens, and cottage gardens. It is hardy to USDA zone 5, or down to -20°F (-29°C). This plant likes full sun and dry to average, sandy or loamy soil. Blue-lavender flowers appear from early to late summer and again in early autumn. It sits low on the menu for deer and rabbits. Butterflies, hummingbirds, bees, and birds visit the blooms, and the plant tolerates drought.

Pairs well with Blanket flower, Feather reed grass, and Casa Blanca lily.
