Sunrise Blue Agastache (Agastache 'Sunrise Blue') is a compact, free-flowering perennial hyssop that dazzles with rich lavender-blue flower spikes held above dense, aromatic foliage all summer long. Part of the beloved Sunrise Series, this selection is prized for its tidy, mounding growth habit and prolific bloom production — making it one of the most reliably beautiful Agastache varieties for front-of-border planting, mass plantings, or mixed container designs. The finely textured, mint-scented leaves provide fragrant appeal even between bloom cycles.

These Professional Grade 4" plants are grown to the highest nursery standards, producing vigorous root systems that establish quickly and return reliably year after year. Sunrise Blue Agastache thrives in full sun with excellent drainage and is well-suited to both in-ground garden beds and container arrangements on sunny patios or decks. Its compact stature makes it especially versatile for smaller garden spaces where a full-sized hyssop might overwhelm.

  • Rich Lavender-Blue Blooms All Summer: Continuous flower production from early summer through fall ensures months of vibrant color and visual impact in borders, beds, and containers.
  • Compact & Well-Behaved Habit: A tidy mounding form that stays neat without excessive pruning, making it ideal for front-of-border placement and mixed plantings.
  • Hummingbird & Butterfly Magnet: The nectar-rich flower spikes attract hummingbirds, monarch butterflies, bumblebees, and other beneficial pollinators throughout the blooming season.
  • Heat & Drought Resilient: Bred for outstanding performance in hot, dry conditions; once established, Sunrise Blue requires minimal supplemental irrigation and handles summer heat with ease.
  • Fragrant, Deer-Resistant Foliage: The aromatic mint-anise scented leaves are naturally deer-resistant, making this an excellent choice for gardens where deer pressure is a concern.

These 4" healthy live plants thrive in full sun with well-drained soil. Water regularly until established, then reduce to occasional deep watering. Hardy in USDA Zones 6–10; mature height 18–24 inches with a spread of 18–24 inches. Blooms from early summer through fall. Trim lightly after the first flush of blooms to encourage continued flowering.
