Agastache

9 years ago

I found two last week after reading the butterfly thread I bought a Heat wave and a black adder. I plan to plant them in full blazing west sun. Any suggestions for what I might expect this year?

As usual, I have a surprise already in that spot. My young vitex is gorgeous and these will go behind it.
But 2 orange trees have volunteers of somke sort of vine in them. My guess a gourd or baby pumpkin. They are blooming small white blossoms now so I thought I'd let their vines trail out of the pots with the satsumas.
Why am I going on about this?
Space. If the agastache take off right away, I need to move the satsumas and their vining pals. Any ideas? c

I decided to pick a different spot. They may not be as visible to me as this tight spot...but the bees will find them.

I'm sorry no one could answer your question.
