This perennial dies back to below ground level each year in autumn, then fresh new growth appears again in spring.

A wonderful plant, which looks brilliant in a variety of setting; Cottage & meadow gardens especially. Looks great in a pot on the patio too. Plant where you can enjoy its minty scented leaves as you brush past. By far the best bee plant I have come across. Last year mine flowered late June - late October.

My favourite agastache. I have tried other varieties, but if you garden on heavy clay this is the one to go for. The 9cm pot plant will be ready by the end of Summer to give you quite a show. This is also a favourite with bees and bumblebees. I grow it with echinops, salvia Amistad and phlox White admiral in dappled shade as it seems to prefer it to full sun. It doubles in size in the second year but the number of flowers justify the bushy appearance. If you prefer it shorter give it a Chelsea chop. If you have more forgiving soil soil it would probably look wonderful with cosmos and penstemon.The colour is somewhat washed denim with a hint of purple depending on the light.

Hello Ruth, You can plant these into the weed supressing fabric without any trouble at all, provided you make sure the fabric allows the water to drain through. All you need to do is cut big crosses into the fabric and peel back the edges to plant and then fold back the edges again. I hope this helps.
