Agastache nepetoides
Common name: Giant Yellow Hyssop
A larger version of the Anise Hyssop (Agastache foeniculum), this plant is also an excellent encourager of pollinators. Although flowers are a bit less showy, they are more abundant and early pruning to encourage branching will increase their numbers even more. A perfect choice for woodland edges in moist areas.
