Luminous, Agastache rugosa Golden Jubilee' (Korean Mint) is an upright, clump-forming perennial with attractive spikes of fragrant, tubular, lavender-blue flowers from mid-summer to early fall. Adding lovely vertical lines to the landscape, they are held over the golden-green foliage of aromatic, lance-shaped leaves. Its long flowering season, showy flower spikes, licorice-scented foliage, low maintenance, and deer resistance explain its great popularity among gardeners. And it is not only pleasing to people. Bees, birds, and butterflies adore it too. Ideal to add color to the late-season garden when many other plants are fading.
