Description

Agastache hybrid 'Poquito™ Butter Yellow' PP#30,403 (Hummingbird Mint) is prized for its compact bushy growth, long season of bloom, large flowers, and tolerance to heat and drought. Recipient of the Classic City Award from the Trial Gardens at University of Georgia in 2019. Pair with taller Agastaches for a dramatic display, or mix with ‘May Night’ Salvia, Nepeta, Lewisia, and compact Lavender for a lovely effect. Not fussy, Agastache plants require well-drained soil and a sunny location, and are drought-tolerant once established. Deadhead spent flowers in summer to encourage more blooms, but leave some spent flowers standing over winter (songbirds love the seeds).


Poquito™ is a fitting name for the most compact series of Agastache plants available – a whole new way to enjoy this favorite waterwise perennial. These native hybrids are small and tidy, making them a perfect fit for small space gardens, containers, and sidewalk gardens. Give these Agastache plants the front row of your garden for non-stop blooms and pollinators.

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.

These ppoquiti agastaches are perfect

"These ppoquiti agastaches are perfect for small spaces. They are already blooming!"

— Eileen L. (5/5)

So far they are growing

"So far they are growing beautifully. Am happy with my purchase"

— Jeannine A. (5/5)

Beautiful plant!

"Planted 2 of the plants in a bed this spring. They bloomed all spring, summer and into the fall in a bed that is exposed to hot afternoon sun. Just beautiful and they look just like the photos. A nice surprise and the temperatures got close to freezing in early October is the bit of red on the flowers adding to the fall colors. Added a photo of the colors this fall. Thank you High Country Gardens!"
