Agastache (1 Gallon Pot)
Whispers of Wildflower Meadows · Rooted in Community · Blooming with Love

Add a touch of charm and fragrance to your garden with our Agastache, also affectionately known as Hummingbird Mint or Anise Hyssop. Planted in a convenient 1-gallon pot, this delightful perennial brings color, pollinators, and a gentle spirit to every space it graces—just like the heartwarming values we cherish at Wright’s Market.

🌿 A Bit of History

Agastache has long been celebrated for both its beauty and usefulness. Native to North America, it was used by Indigenous communities in teas and natural remedies, thanks to its sweetly aromatic leaves and soothing properties. Its tall, swaying blooms have since found a home in cottage gardens and wildflower meadows, where they invite butterflies, bees, and hummingbirds to linger awhile.

💜 What It Represents

This lovely plant stands for joy, peace, and good health. With its soft fragrance and vibrant blooms, agastache reminds us to slow down, breathe deep, and take in the little blessings around us—values we hold close in our Wright’s Market family.

☀️ Where It Grows Best

Agastache thrives in full sun and absolutely loves hot, dry spots—making it a perfect choice for our Southern gardens. It's drought tolerant, low-maintenance, and just the kind of plant that flourishes with a little love and room to grow.

🌼 How to Care

• Sunlight: Full sun (6–8 hours daily)

• Watering: Moderate watering while young; very drought tolerant once established

• Soil: Well-drained, even sandy soil is perfect

• Pruning: Light deadheading keeps blooms coming all summer

• Perennial: Comes back every year with even more heart

🐾 Pet Friendly?

Agastache is generally considered non-toxic to pets, but its strong scent may keep curious noses away naturally! As always, we suggest a watchful eye if your furry friends like to explore the garden.

🌿 Size at Maturity

Expect your agastache to grow 2 to 4 feet tall and 1 to 2 feet wide, with soft spikes of purple, pink, coral, or apricot blooms that dance in the breeze.

🌸 Companion Plant Ideas

At Wright’s Market, we believe every plant tells a story—of resilience, renewal, and the quiet beauty of living things. Our Agastache is a gentle reminder that joy can grow even in the driest places, and kindness, like wildflowers, often appears where we least expect it.

💐 Come plant a little peace with us—and let your garden bloom with heart.
