How disappointing... no doubt you've tossed it onto the compost pile.....?
I'm growing Agastache cana, A.rupestris, A.astromontana and A.'Blue
Fortune'. I've been trying to attract hummers.
I had an apricot colored agastache - Apricot sunrise? - from Beds and
Borders in Riverdale, NY... and it made a valient effort to survive but was
only borderline hardy here -- in fact, it may still be out there, hard to
say as they've just started to bloom. All the newer ones have smaller and
narrower leaves.
The foliage on 'Blue Fortune' is larger and rough and smells wonderful. It
looks like Anise Hyssop and is probably just a named cultivar. Since I've
noticed many plants growing very vigorously in the same town where this was
planted I will keep an eye on it.

Karen.. the only Agastache I could ever find was Blue Fortune..& it does
tend to spread!!!
I can't remember the name of the Nursery on Long Island that had dif.
varieties of Agas. Marge Mac in Va.

Beds and Borders in Riverhead had afew, but I don't know what's going to
happen now that its owner and terrific plantswoman passed away. Probably
Roslyn nursery has some too. High Country Gardens in the west (mail order)
has lots of Agastaches = I want them all, but ofcourse they're not all
hardy here ::sob::
