Agastache
Anise Hyssop

This aromatic plant, belonging to the mint family, is known for its distinctive anise-like flavor. The leaves can be used fresh or dried to make a healthy tea with anti-oxidant properties. The upright flowers are purple and can be up to 4” in height with a long bloom period. Attracting loads of bees, Anise Hyssop makes a great addition to any garden aiming to support pollinators. I consider this an easy plant to grow and a solid choice for those looking to enhance their garden’s biodiversity.
