Tall flower spikes covered with blooms in a dreamy array of pastels make this Agastache assortment a must-have. The Hummingbird Agastache Collection includes an Agastache ‘Blue Bayou,’ ‘Guava Lava,’ ‘Mango Tango,’ ‘Little Adder,' ‘Pink Pearl,' and ‘Rosie Posie.’ Tubular flowers are compactly spaced on tall stems. The blooms have contrasting calyxes that add drama and yet another pop of color.
Agastache is a clump-forming plant that adds height to a bed. Place it near the middle or back of a mixed bed or create a highly textural and colorful mass planting. Use the Hummingbird Agastache Collection plants to line a walkway or complement a butterfly garden. Pollinators enjoy the fragrant blooms. These plants are disease resistant and low-maintenance, making them an easy and worry-free addition to a landscape.
Hummingbird Agastache Collection Care
Select a planting location that receives full sun. Agastache needs average, well-drained soil with a neutral pH. Water when the top layer of the soil is dry. Mature plants are drought-tolerant, but water during a long dry period supports growth and keeps the plants in bloom. These plants are not heavy feeders and do not require fertilizer.
If necessary, remove leggy growth partway through the summer. The first frost will kill the stems and greenery. Trim the damaged growth by half, leaving some to protect the roots from cold winter weather. Remove the remaining dead growth in the spring to make way for new springtime growth.
Hummingbird Agastache Collection Spacing
The plants in the Hummingbird Agastache Collection reach 30 inches tall and wide. Space plants 30 inches apart to create a continuous planting.

Plant Addicts Warranty - 1 Year (Extra Purchase Required)
We encourage all plant lovers to purchase the Plant Addicts Warranty, whether you're a new gardener or an expert. There are many variables outside of anyone's control that can cause a plant to die. Hungry animals, drought, poor soil conditions, over watering, diseases & pests are all good examples of what can cause plants to die. The Plant Addicts Warranty is a 1 year warranty protecting you from all of the unknowns and will replace your plant if something were to happen to it.
The warranty is purchased on a per plant basis and must be purchased at the same time as the plant(s). We will cover 100% of the price of the plant, but the warranty does not cover shipping costs. SImply let us know if your plant has died within 1 year of receiving it and we will get you a new one shipped out as soon as possible (depending on the time of the year and availability). We may ask for photos for documentation purposes, but we try to make the process as easy as possible.

Plant Shipping
Below are some factors we consider when determining when to ship the plants depending on the timing of the order.
Winter to Early Spring
We ship only when it's warm enough to plant in your growing zone.
Sometimes plants aren't completely ready to sell and ship in early spring. We will wait until the plants are ready before shipping so you don't get a subpar product.
For Southern plants we will be able to ship much earlier than plants coming from our northern nursery.
Summer
If there is extreme heat we may delay shipping for a week or several weeks.
We review what areas the plants are traveling through as well as your location.
Fall into Winter
We’ll ship plants out all the way up to the end of the fall planting season!
Winter
Get your order in early to reserve your plants for Spring planting!
Once your plant is shipped you’ll receive an automated email with tracking information.
