Coreopsis and Agastache as Summer Loving, Blooming Duo

Agastache 'Apricot Sunrise' and Coreopsis 'Garnet' are a gorgeous duo of sun-worshiping, summer-blooming, drought-tolerant perennials; both have an exceptionally long bloom period and will produce a froth of showy blooms from summer to fall. The aromatic foliage of the hyssop, reminiscent of licorice, is an added bonus. Use this combo on its own, in a container, or add complementary plants to create a larger, more comprehensive planting scheme.
