Kudos Coral Hyssop (Agastache 'Kudos Coral') is a vivid, heat-loving perennial that delivers an extraordinary season-long floral performance in shades of warm coral-orange and soft pink. Dense, upright flower spikes rise above compact, aromatic foliage from early summer straight through to the first frost — an exceptionally long bloom period that few perennials can match. The fragrant, tubular flowers are irresistible to hummingbirds, butterflies, and bees, making this plant an essential addition to any wildlife-friendly garden.

Grown from Professional Grade root systems, Kudos Coral Agastache is as practical as it is beautiful. Its compact, well-branched habit never flops or requires staking, and its aromatic licorice-scented foliage is naturally deer-resistant. This adaptable performer excels in full sun borders, mixed cottage-style plantings, dry garden designs, and large container arrangements on sunny patios and terraces. Heat-tolerant and drought-smart once established, it is a top-tier choice for low-water, high-impact garden design.

Why You'll Love It

  • Exceptional Bloom Duration: Warm coral-orange and pink flower spikes bloom continuously from early summer through hard frost — one of the longest-blooming ornamental perennials available for the sunny border.
  • Hummingbird & Pollinator Magnet: Tubular fragrant flowers are a premier nectar source for hummingbirds, monarch butterflies, bees, and beneficial insects throughout the season.
  • Heat & Drought Tolerant: Thrives in hot, sunny conditions and handles dry spells with ease once established — a standout performer in water-wise and xeriscape garden designs.
  • Compact, No-Stake Habit: Well-branched, upright stems naturally support heavy bloom loads without flopping, making this a truly carefree, low-maintenance border plant.
  • Deer-Resistant Aromatic Foliage: Pleasantly licorice-scented leaves are naturally unappealing to deer and rabbits, providing reliable performance in gardens where browsing pressure is a concern.

These 4" healthy live plants thrive in full sun in fast-draining, low-to-moderate fertility soil. Excellent drainage is critical — avoid heavy clay or consistently moist conditions. Water regularly until established, then reduce irrigation to low and infrequent. Best suited for USDA Hardiness Zones 5–10. Mature height: 18–24 inches; spread: 18–24 inches. Blooms early summer through hard frost. Deadhead lightly or shear by one-third in midsummer to refresh and extend the bloom display through fall.
