Agastache aurantiaca Apricot Sprite

Never before has flower power been experienced from a border plant of this kind. A staggering display of apricot spikes of tasselled florets, erupting like flames from the laced, richly fragrant foliage. Very quick growing, excellent in bedding, borders and containers.

Bred and selected by T&M for its dwarf, compact habit, and was awarded a Fleuroselect Quality Mark. All this and it also flowers in its first year from seed.

Sowing:
