Why you’ll love it
Striking colour: Dense spikes of vibrant rosy‑pink flowers that hold their hue from early summer into autumn.
Pollinator magnet: Native bees, European honeybees, butterflies and nectar‑feeding birds are attracted to the sweet, liquorice‑tinted nectar.
Neat, mounded plants reach about 45–60 cm tall, drought tolerant.
Low maintenance: Deadhead to prolong flowering; trim back in late season for a tidy winter shape or allow
Growing conditions:
Full sun for best flowering and compact growth. In very hot, inland areas provide afternoon shade to reduce stress.
Prefers lean to moderately fertile, well‑drained soil. Avoid heavy clay and waterlogged sites.
Water regularly until established; once mature it tolerates dry spells. Reduce watering in winter in Mediterranean climates to avoid root rot.
Sow on the surface with light, keep warm (15–22°C) and moist for good germination.
Pests & diseases: Generally trouble‑free; watch for root issues in poorly drained soil and occasional aphids. Good airflow and well‑drained soil minimise problems.
Why it fits Cottage Garden Seeds- Agastache ‘Aztec Rose’ complements our open‑pollinated, cottage‑flower range by adding dependable colour, scent and pollinator value.
