DESCRIPTION
Agastache mexicana 'Balsumlilac', commonly known as Summerlong™ Lilac, is a compact, densely branched perennial that showcases bright lilac-pink blooms. This cultivar, derived from the Mexican giant hyssop native to central Mexico's oak forests, offers a beautiful display from early summer through fall. The tubular flowers are arranged in terminal spikes, attracting hummingbirds, bees, and butterflies, thereby enhancing the garden's ecological value.
The foliage of 'Balsumlilac' is aromatic, emitting a pleasant lemon and anise-like scent when touched, adding a sensory dimension to the garden experience. Notably, this cultivar is heat and drought tolerant once established, making it suitable for water-wise gardens. Its compact size and prolonged blooming period make it an excellent choice for sunny borders, cottage gardens, pollinator gardens, and container plantings.
