Description

Hummingbird Mints have become staples in western horticulture for good reasons since the promotion of this genus by our founder David Salman in the 1990s: they’re unfussy, growing and flowering well in both average and dry flower gardens, they sport delightfully mint-scented foliage, adding a unique, sensory element to the garden, and they are superb bloomers, pumping out showy, nectar rich flowers to the delight of both gardeners and hummingbirds alike. 'Pink Pearl' Agastache represents a unique step forward in the utility of Hummingbird Mints in the garden – its unusually compact growth and innumerable, tubular pink flowers keep this plant forefront in the garden scene for months. It also begins blooming earlier than most other hummingbird mints sold today, as early as late-spring. 'Pink Pearl' Hummingbird Mint is exceptional when cross lit, so consider siting it where its flowers can catch morning or evening light and so they can really glow. Unappealing to deer and rabbits and drought-tolerant once established.

Planting & Care

Tips for growing Agastache

Agastache are sun loving plants with aromatic foliage and flowers. They bloom from mid-summer into early fall and are resistant to rabbits and deer.

Agastache need lean, well-drained soils, prefer gravel mulches, and appreciate deep but infrequent watering after their second growing season

  1. Provide a fast draining soil that's naturally low in fertility, Don't plant into clay soils.
  2. Plant in full hot sun.
  3. Just a few handfuls of compost in the planting hole is enough. Don't plant into a rich, highly amended soil..
  4. Fertilize the Agastache just once in fall with Yum Yum Mix.
  5. New transplants need regular irrigation their first growing season to establish themselves. Watering can be reduced greatly during the second growing season when the plants have matured.

To improve winter-hardiness, and encourage re-seeding, leave the stems intact over the winter. In mid-spring, remove old stems just above the new foliage, about 4 or 5 inches above ground level.

If your conditions don't lend themselves to growing Agastache in your garden, they do well planted in containers.
