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 aromatic, triangular green leaves with a silvery underside, 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 $6.00

Customer Comment:
“I held my breath and opened the box (after a long delay in opening the delivered plants, due to catastrophic flooding), dug down through the damp paper shreds and found all the plants alive!!!! I'm so relieved. I had to write and thank you for the hardiness of the plants, and for packing them so carefully.... Thank you, Digging Dog. I'll be back.”
