Description
The Agastache 'Kudos Coral' is part of a series of recent hybrids, selected by an American nursery for their improved hardiness. This variety, particularly floriferous, blooms tirelessly during a long summer period. It forms a well-compacted and leafy clump adorned with an abundant flowering of upright spikes adorned with small flowers of intense coral-red. The dark foliage is especially disease-resistant. Robust, relatively hardy and undemanding, this perennial undoubtedly brings a touch of lushness to cottage borders. It will thrive in the sun, even in cool climates, in well-drained soil that is not too dry to support its beautiful flowering.
The Agastache hybrid 'Kudos Coral' is a plant of the lamiaceae family, related to salvias, catmints, and other thymes. This herbaceous perennial, relatively hardy for an agastache, forms an upright clump with highly branched stems, 35 to 40 cm (14 to 16in) tall and wide depending on growing conditions, giving it a more bushy and compact habit than other species. It produces triangular leaves, 5 cm (2in) long, with dentate edges, dark green, which grow along the length of the angular floral stems. When crushed, they release a scent of mint mixed with lemon. The flowering period extends from May-June to September, without interruption, in the form of upright, thin, and dense inflorescences. Each small tubular flower, ranging from pink to coral-red, is surrounded by red-purple bracts, and the colour does not fade in the sun. This particularly nectar-rich and nectar-bearing flowering attracts a large number of bees and butterflies. This cultivar 'Kudos Coral' also stands out for its good resistance to downy mildew, even in humid climates.
Easy to grow, Agastache 'Kudos Coral' thrives in sunny borders with a slightly wild appearance, but also in pots on the terrace. In hot regions, it should never lack water during flowering. A carefree perennial, it adds height and substance to borders composed of grasses (stipas, eragrostis, pennisetums), herbaceous salvias, tall daisies, echinaceas, goldenrods, and asters. It also pairs very well with yellow or orange shrubby potentillas, for example.
The flowers and highly fragrant leaves of Agastache are edible and delicious in salads or fish dishes.

Planting and care
Agastache 'Kudos Coral' is a plant that dreads heavy, waterlogged soils in winter. In our heavy soil, we dig a hole 30 cm (12in) in all directions, pour in pure sand, and install the stump without adding any soil. This plant requires a sunny position sheltered from heavy frosts. During very harsh winters, cover the stumps with straw or dead leaves to form a thick mulch. The soil that welcomes it should be fertile, loose, well-drained but rather moist. The plant can tolerate periods of temporary drought, which nevertheless harm the flowering.

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).
In temperate climates, pruning of spring-flowering shrubs (forsythia, spireas, etc.) should be done just after flowering.
Pruning of summer-flowering shrubs (Indian Lilac, Perovskia, etc.) can be done in winter or spring.
In cold regions as well as with frost-sensitive plants, avoid pruning too early when severe frosts may still occur.
The harvesting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions in USDA zone 8 (France, England, Ireland, the Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...) fruit and vegetable harvests are likely to be delayed by 3-4 weeks.
In warmer areas (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), harvesting will probably take place earlier, depending on weather conditions.
The sowing periods indicated on our website apply to countries and regions within USDA Zone 8 (France, UK, Ireland, Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...), delay any outdoor sowing by 3-4 weeks, or sow under glass.
In warmer climes (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), bring outdoor sowing forward by a few weeks.
The planting period indicated on our website applies to regions in USDA Zone 9a (East Coast and Midlands: Dublin, Wexford, Waterford, Kilkenny, Portlaoise). It will vary depending on where you live:
- On the west coast and in the north-west (Galway, Limerick, Sligo, Donegal, Westport), delay planting by 1 to 2 weeks in spring and bring it forward by 1 to 2 weeks in autumn compared to the dates given, preferably choosing periods without strong winds.
- In the inland hills and plateaus (Wicklow Mountains, Macgillycuddy’s Reeks, Connemara, Killarney), it is best to plant in spring (April–May) or autumn (September–October), avoiding periods of waterlogged soil in winter and strong winds, which pose the main risk to newly planted trees in these areas.
The flowering period indicated on our website applies to regions in USDA Zone 9a, such as the East Coast and Midlands, including Dublin, Wexford, Waterford, Kilkenny and Portlaoise.
This will vary depending on where you live:
- On the west coast and in the northwest (Galway, Limerick, Sligo, Donegal and Westport), it will be delayed by one to two weeks compared to the given dates, due to stronger Atlantic winds and less spring sunshine.
- In the inland hills and plateaus (the Wicklow Mountains, the Macgillycuddy's Reeks, Connemara and Killarney), flowering will be delayed by two to three weeks. Flowering mainly occurs between May and July, with the limiting factors being less frost and more of the excessive humidity, strong winds and lack of sunshine that are characteristic of these areas.
