Agastache aurantiaca ‘Apricot Sunrise’ at Digging Dog
Lovers of heat, these tough and drought resistant Mint family relatives guarantee terminal spikes adorned with brightly colored, tubular flowers just about all summer long. Agastaches are easily grown in well drained soils, and will bloom more profusely, over an even longer period of time, if the flowering stems are cut back in midseason. Agastache aurantiaca ‘Apricot Sunrise’
This easy-to-grow, drought tolerant perennial was hybridized by Richard Dufresne of Greensboro, North Carolina. With sinuous stems tinged a dusty grape, wine-purple calyxes, deep orange buds that fade slightly as they open, and triangular green leaves with a minty aroma and silvery undersides, the stunning shades of an evening sky will color your garden all day long. Plant with Mediterraneans or Cephalaria gigantea.
Blooms June–September. Size: 2-1/2' high x 2' wide; hardy to zone 7. Agastache aurantiaca ‘Apricot Sunrise’ (P-0176) Each $7.00
