Anise Hyssop

Agastache foeniculum. Also known as agastache or licorice mint, this fragrant anise-scented perennial herb in the mint family can be made into a soothing tea or potpourri. Beautiful blue-purple flowers attract many beneficial insects as well as butterflies and hummingbirds — but not deer! Easy to grow, sew in spring for late summer blooms. 80 days.
