Planting
From Early Spring TO Early Spring
Plant young plants as a gap-filler in herb gardens or in sunny, dry places, for example at the base of walls. Grows best in well-drained alkaline soil but will tolerate poor acid soils. Tends to be short-lived. Water newly-planted agastache regularly, until it is established. Once established it can tolerate a certain amount of drought, so would only need watering in prolonged dry spells of weather
Propagation by division.
From Early Spring TO Early Spring
Propagate by division in spring or propagate by semi-ripe cuttings in late summer for overwintering under cover. To divide, place two hand forks back-to-back near the middle of the plant. Gently push the handles back and forth so that the prongs gradually tease the plant apart. Repeat the process with each portion to divide the plant into more sections, making sure each section has a healthy bud.
