Description

A hardy floriferous perennial that the hummingbirds, butterflies and beneficial pollinators will thank you for planting, ‘Rosie Posie’ Agastache, commonly called Hummingbird Mint, features abundant spikes with LOADS of bicolor hot pink flowers with magenta-purple calyxes that are so colorful that this plant looks like it’s still blooming even after the flowers have faded. That said, this one flowers over a long period from early to mid summer through early fall, depending on your location. It’s aromatic, mint-scented, bright green foliage is much more dense, compact and refined than older Agastache cultivars, making it a perfect selection for smaller garden spaces and containers. Tolerating dry soils when established, this is a very easy perennial to grow.

Landscape / Garden Uses

Growing 2 feet tall and maybe a little wider, Rosie Posie Agastache is ideal for use an accent in smaller garden spaces and containers or grouped in larger perennial borders in perennial gardens. A fine addition to hummingbird gardens, butterfly gardens, beneficial pollinator gardens, cottage gardens, pink theme gardens, and Xeriscape gardens (low water needs).

Growing Preferences

Rosie Posie Agastache is very easy to grow when planted right, and in the right spot. It prefers a well-drained moist to damp soil and full sun to mostly sun for best flowering. A constantly soggy or wet soil can cause root rot. Quite drought tolerant when established. Deadheading spent flowers encourages rebloom.

We have always fed hummingbirds (6 -8 feeders) and when I saw this pink hummingbird mint I knew I needed one for the very large pot on the deck, And a perennial! It came as a good size, very healthy plant and it has grown to about 4 times the size, filling the pot and over the edge. It is a very sturdy plant that can take the breezes off the lake. It hasn’t bloomed yet, but as thick as it is, it will be spectacular when it does!—————————————————–We are so glad you are pleased and we hope you enjoy your purchase for years to come! Thanks for the kind words and wonderful review! 🙂 Beth Steele | WBG
