Notes

'Morello' Bill Williams Mountain giant hyssop (Agastache 'Morello') is a perennial for borders, pollinator gardens, and containers. It is hardy to USDA zone 5, or down to -20°F (-29°C). This plant likes full sun and dry to moist soil of most types. Deer and rabbits tend to pass it by. It blooms over a long period from mid June through September. The dark foliage is flushed with purple when young and smells like mint.

Pairs well with Tomato Soup coneflower, Snowcap Shasta daisy, and Feather reed grass.
