Agastache 'Purple Haze'

Anise Hyssop

Bearing deep smoky violet blue flowers held on rose purple calyxes, this drought tolerant nativar draws attention on the retail bench and when planted en masse in the landscape. Its dense, upright habit makes an excellent presentation in large containers. A pollinator magnet; aromatic foliage keeps deer away.
