Agastache aurantiaca 'Arizona Sunset'

Lost all of my main plants to being a bad plant mom, no idea what color this little orphan will be 😓😓

I wish I knew why I always have bad luck with these, maybe it being a pot with nodrainage? I filled half the pot with drainage rock for a false bottom, it was in full sun too, and i maintained water just fine. Can humidity hurt them? Maybe heat? Please help! #help #plantid #hyssop #agastache zone 6a, maybe dry arizona cant work with humid ky? 😭😭

@kipcott I think you need to put them in a pot that has good drainage. Can you drill holes in this pot or do you have another pot? Ifind it's way too hard if theres no drainage holes in a pot to water properly, unless the plant is a water plant. Thats what I think maybe someone else has better advice for you!💘😍

@ShelleySnyder yeah i went against people's advice putting them in there i just was so certain i could make it work 😢😢

Don't know. My notes in garden journal mentioned well drained. Sun loving, summer-fall blooming. I do cut back when bloom looks bad or transplanting. And edible flowers, at least for Arizona Sun and Sandstone. Varieties I have. My garden has been underperforming in general an just did 1T per gallon of Epson salts today for whole garden per Moore. This is after seeing several people sing its praises. He says 1 x month for outdoor as allows plants to absorb magnesium I believe.

@ofthought is right I know my plants all like the magnesium but maybe you should do alittle research on you this plant, what nutrients are important for myAgastache/ and then put ur zone in there after the slash plus I agree with Shelly most plants need drainage unless there very thick fiberious roots but still too I've been told after potted plts. have been in same soil after a couple years u should give fresh soil with alittle of the soil it was in. Let us all know what works it'll help us all

Finally collected all 3 varietes from the 'arizona' set of agastache!! Arizona sunset, sun, and sandstone! Hummingbirds love this stuff and i cant reccomend it more! Love these!

Been waiting for this in my store all year!! Love them! Any tips on helping them survive winter? I've been told zone 6 (which i am) but they never make it! #help #plantid

@kipcott heavy mulch maybe?
