A long-blooming, drought tolerant perennial that’s perfect for adding vivid color to perennial and pollinator gardens. Blooms spring through fall with tall spikes of tubular, pink magenta flowers that are highly attractive to hummingbirds and other pollinators. Features small, diamond-shaped foliage that has a sweet, minty fragrance. Deadhead continually to encourage continuous blooming and cut back once a year to refresh foliage. Prefers sharply-draining soil. Performs best with regular watering. Plant in full sun to light shade inland. Will die back to the ground over winter.
