  1. So many bumblebees and other smaller bees are living their best lives getting intimate with the little purple blossoms on the Agastache foeniculum stalks, also called Giant Hyssop or Anise Hyssop.

    Slow-motion pollinators!

    In back on railing corner is a bowl filled with rocks we fill with water for the bees.

    Interesting that they aren’t competing. Maybe some pollinators do compete but i don’t think I’ve ever seen it — except maybe hummingbirds!

  2. ‘Peachy Keen’ Agastache, first year blooming for me. I think the pink and peach colors are absolutely gorgeous. #agastache #gardening #flowers #perennials

  3. These are great companions in a #Pollinators patch, #Agastache and #AchilleaMillefolium (hyssop and yarrow). Long blooming, continually buzzing with bees, bee flies, and bumble bees. Plus, lovely flowers in late summer through fall.

  4. I grew this Anise Hyssop ( foeniculum) from seed. It was fairly tame the first two years, but it really took over this summer. In fact, it has crowded out a significant chunk of the Wild Bergamot! It is drought-tolerant (I haven’t watered it since the first year - low maintenance! 😁) and it attracts tons of pollinators.

  7. Good morning from the garden. If you’re a hummingbird, please enjoy this agastache (hummingbird mint). 🌞

  8. These plants were so pretty that I just had to take a photo. A mess of Oregon native blanketflowers (Gaillardia aristata) and a couple of nice flower stalks of an agastache cultivar (A. rupestris, I think).
