Its foliage smells distinctly like minty black licorice when crushed, thus one of its other common names, Anise Hyssop.

We suggest 6 hours or more of direct sunlight daily. Constantly soggy or wet soil can cause root rot, especially during winter, so choose a well-draining planting site. Deadheading spent flowers encourages heavier reblooming throughout the season.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHelpful Articles\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHow To Plant \u0026amp; Grow Agastache In Garden Beds \u0026amp; Containers\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePlant Long \u0026amp; Prosper!\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003eQuestions?\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan\u003eContact Us!\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                     \u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48147993526426,"sku":"D2LSC 203716154","price":22.3,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0751\/3263\/3242\/files\/agastache-blue-fortune-hummingbird-mint-10.jpg?v=1779972219","url":"https:\/\/plant.hcgardenus.com\/products\/blue-fortune-agastache-hummingbird-mint-1-gallon-pot","provider":"Royal Horticultural Society","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
