Notes

'Kudos Red' Bill Williams Mountain giant hyssop (Agastache 'Kudos Red') is a perennial for borders, pollinator gardens, containers, and cottage gardens. It is hardy to USDA zone 6, or down to -10°F (-23°C). This plant likes full sun and dry to moist soil of most types. The fragrant flowers appear in early to late summer and again in early to late autumn, and butterflies, hummingbirds, and bees visit them. It sits low on the menu for deer and rabbits. Its drought tolerance makes it an easy plant to grow.

Pairs well with Coneflower, Red-hot poker, Cosmos, and Fountain grass.
