If its good looks and appealing aroma were not enough, consider that, like all agastache varieties, it also lures hummingbirds and butterflies to the landscape for all to enjoy. Noted for its unique coloration and more compact form, this is a sturdy variety that won't flop over in the wind and rain. Plant in mixed borders or cutting gardens for a real treat in summer and fall. Ideal bloom for dried flower bouquets or arrangements. Easy to grow and deer resistant. Agastache rugosa 'Little Adder'
