Eric,
I haven't ordered Agastaches from both HCG and Almost Eden. Only from HCG. Maybe no one else has ordered from both companies, so they couldn't comment. I'm sure AE ships out nice Agastaches. I've thought about adding Agastaches to the order when I've placed orders from them before.
I ordered Kudos Red from Romance Gardens and I'm looking forward to seeing it in bloom.
I've grown Tutti Frutti before and love it. This spring, I ordered a Tutti Frutti also. Beautiful flower color.
