Yellow Giant Hyssop (Agastache nepetoides)
Yellow Giant Hyssop (Agastache nepetoides)
Agastache nepetoides, commonly named The Yellow Giant Hyssop, is a tall understated perennial flower native to much of the United States and Canada. It is a member of the Lamiaceae (Mint) family.
It is listed as endangered in Connecticut, and as threatened in the state of New York, Vermont, and Wisconsin.
It is related to other Hyssop species in our inventory at Fellabees and Nativeseeds such as Anise Hyssop and Purple Giant Hyssop.
The blooms open a few at a time along its long spike, feeding many pollinators leading well into fall.
Preferring a partly shady and rich soiled savanna, it will tolerate full sun, but not deep shade. When it favors its sight it will spread slowly by rhizomes to develop an enduring colony.
This plant is considered present but rare in several counties of the states of Wisconsin, Minnesota, New York, Vermont, Connecticut, New Jersey, Maryland, North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, and Alabama.

Packet quantities:
We pride ourselves on ethical, hands on, ecological management, using no mechanical or chemical methods whatsoever.
