Hello everyone I am growing one Agastache my Anise Hyssop in a large container
and it is blooming so here are some pictures

I bet it smells lovely. Sometimes I wish we had smell-o-vision...beautiful plants.

Its actually just one plant I took picture of the plant and then close ups of the bloom.

@Willinator,

Do you know the variety of your agastache? If you do and if you'd like to post your pics in the database, here's the main (general) link of agastaches.

The Anise Hyssops Database

This is the link if you know which one it is. Click the letter above at the top and/or scroll down to find it.

If you don't know which one you have, then here's the generic link to post your pics.

Beautiful pics.

I will check on that in the morning to know what I have or if it has any information on the tags

Well it is a little later but I checked the tag and it came from from "The Growers Exchange"
and is identified as Anise Hyssop so I gather it is probably Agastache foeniculum

Here are some more pictures of the Agastache foeniculum yes the Anise Hyssop

Those look great. Here's the database link for Agastache foeniculum if you want to post them.

Anise Hyssop (Agastache foeniculum)

I am back with some more pictures of the blooms because I found a black bee on the blooms. Enjoy!

Willinator - I've never seen a black bee like yours. It almost looks like a beetle. I counted 9 bumble bees on my agastache yesterday. I'll try to get a photo today.

Well Teri, I like the picture which looks a lot like one of our cats. Mine's name is Snickerdoodle and he is a grey seal point siamese.

Willinator - Love Snickerdoodle's name! My blue point was named Felix found wandering in a field north of Seattle as a kitten. Lucky us! He passed away last yr at 17 & is dearly missed.

I was able to take one slighty blurry image of a bumble bee on my Agastache Blue Boa. This plant has grown huge over the yrs. It's 4.5' H x 5.5' W.





I planted my salvia Bodacious Rhythm & Blues from a pot last yr. It's close to 4' tall. Might be due to the strange spring weather.





dark photo but seems to most capture the gorgeous indigo of this flower

Great pics Willinator and Teruko.

Teruko,

If you want to post your Bodacious® Rhythm and Blues pics, here's the database link.

Salvia (Salvia coerulea Bodacious® Rhythm and Blues)

Teruko.. That is a spectacular indigo blue . It just glows....

All the pics are are nice to see .

Marilyn - I've never posted in the database so not sure which photo would be helpful to others. Can you recommend which one to use? Thank you.

Bumplbea - Thank you for the kinds words. I'm really loving this plant's color. I've stayed away from flowering perennials as I've been intimidated by them but I'm timidly entering that realm. It's all about bringing more bees into my yard.

Teruko. Bees will come if you plant the many flowers attract bees and hummers. There are several helpful sites on this forum planting for bees and YouTube videos that can get you on your way.

I've never seen a flower with that illuminates that bright color. Save your seeds you can have new starts for next season, or trade.

Teri,

The first of your two Agastache Blue Boa would be a bloom pic and the second one, an entire plant pic.

The first one of your Salvia Bodacious Rhythm & Blues, would be a bloom pic; the second one an entire plant pic and the third one another bloom pic.
