can you grow agastache?

16 years ago

hi everyone,

has anyone had any luck with agastache 'blue fortune'? I found it on dave's garden with a zone 6a rating. I have a few plants rated zone 5 or 6 that do well in my garden and was wondering if I should push the envelope and try this one? I was thinking it might look nice with Karl Foerster or Eldorado grass.

Yes, blue hyssop grows here. I do not know which variety it is.
It looks good with Iceland poppies.
The tall white flowered variety grows here also.
