Agastache rupestris, commonly known as Sunset Hyssop or Licorice Mint, is a perennial herb in the Lamiaceae family. Native to the southwestern United States, it thrives in subtropical climates and is known for its aromatic foliage and vibrant flowers that attract pollinators like bees and hummingbirds. The plant undergoes a dormancy period during the winter months.
Agastache rupestris prefers full sun and well-drained soil. It thrives in moderate temperatures and can tolerate dry conditions once established. Regular watering is needed during the growing season, but the soil should be allowed to dry out between waterings. The plant benefits from moderate humidity levels.
