Agastache are easy-to-care-for, colorful perennials that make a great addition to perennial beds and borders. The Agastache in the ‘Kudos’ series are a compact form of Agastache that grow just one to two feet tall and wide. ‘Kudos Ambrosia’ blooms spring into fall with spikes of alternating orange and rose pink flowers that attract bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds. Features small, diamond-shaped foliage that has a sweet, minty fragrance. Looks best if sheared once or twice in summer to encourage continuous blooming. Highly tolerant of heat including reflective heat. Prefers moderately fertile but well-drained soil. Plant in full sun to light shade inland and water regularly to occasionally. Downy mildew resistant. Will go fully dormant in the winter.
