I'm with Marilyn. I want more too. I also love the one I bought for $2.99 at Santa Rosa called 'Summer Sky.' That plant glows in the garden. It looks so good with Echinacea 'Cheyenne Spirit.' There's just something about the contrast of cool and warm colors that I like.

Good deal on that Agastache! Thumbs up Hurray! I didn't buy any plants at their 2.99 price, since I have too many to plant still.

We are planning to add Agastache to our offerings next year, and are trialing a number now - including the entire Terra Nova offering. I would love suggestions as to which are best liked. Trying for at least Zone 6 hardiness in most cases/

I got Agastache 'Kudos Coral' & 'Kudos Mandarin' this year and love them!

I would love to grow 'Kudos Ambrosia' also!

I grow 'Raspberry Summer' and love it!

Love 'Summer Fiesta', 'Summer Sunset', 'Summer Love' & 'Blue Boa' also!

Summer Sky was very beautiful.. and Summer Glow actually was a very nice yellow!

I have either Summer Fiesta or Raspberry Summer growing right now. I don't know which it is as the tags got removed as I thought they died. I have to wait until they actually start blooming to figure it out.

Kermit - The Acapulco series, Agastache rupestris (Sunset agastache), & Agastache cana do extremely well in my zone 5 climate. The Nectar series (Grape & Orange) *are* perennial here as well, but aren't as vigorous as the others. For some reason, though, I can't get the Coronado series to survive even the summer, let alone overwinter.

I'll have to take pictures of my Acapulcos.. my back yard looks pretty nice with all of them everywhere & the hummers are loving it!!

Marilyn - Yup. I put all of them in the database before posting them here to make sure that I remembered to do so. Thought they were pretty good shots considering.
