Agastache 'Tango' bears wonderful trumpet-shaped blooms in a fiery red-orange. Its compact habit makes it perfect for small gardens and containers, where it will grow well with other brightly coloured flowers including salvias. It's a magnet for longer-tongued bees and butterflies. Although perennial, it can be short-lived and is often grown as an annual, although it may self-seed if you avoid deadheading spent blooms.

Grow Agastache 'Tango’ in moist but well-drained soil in full sun. Cut back blooms in autumn or leave to seed. In some areas you may need to offer winter protection.
