Description
Agastache 'Kudos Yellow' completes this excellent lineage of Kudos hybrid agastaches with an abundance of bright yellow flowers. It is a compact variety, which produces a multitude of opulent flower spikes loaded with flowers that attract bees. Its aromatic foliage perfectly perfumes the garden. The plant is naturally resistant to mildew. It easily survives our winters. Plant it in a sunny location in well-drained soil that is not too dry in summer.
Agastache 'Kudos Yellow' belongs to the Lamiaceae family, rich in plants producing essential oils. These substances protect them from both herbivorous animals and the sun's rays. This variety is no exception: its heart-shaped deciduous foliage releases a powerful minty and aniseed scent that delights the nostrils and repels pests!
Agastache 'Kudos Yellow' is part of the Kudos hybrid series. Plants in this group are characterised by a dense habit, as well as better resistance to cold and winter humidity than other agastaches. From June to October, it produces spikes in the shape of large "candles", high above the stems. The plant forms a compact clump, which can reach 45 to 50cm (18 to 20in) in height and about 45cm (18in) in diameter. Each pure yellow flower is nestled in a green calyx. These flowers are also edible in salads. The hardiness of this variety, although not exceptional (-15°C (5°F) in well-drained soil and sheltered location), is better than in other agastaches. Moreover, it is very nectar-rich and will be a true magnet for bees and other pollinators, especially in autumn when flowers become scarce in the garden. The deciduous foliage is absent in winter. Agastaches are perennials with a rather short lifespan, and usually fade away after 3 to 5 years. Divide the clump regularly.
Agastache 'Kudos Yellow' appreciates full sun or light shade (its stems droop in very shady situations). It will grow in any good garden soil that is not too chalky or too dry. Water potted plants regularly and they will reward you until autumn. It will look wonderful in a rocky bed or moist rockery with Erigeron karvinskianus, Sedum 'Angelina', Teucrium flavum, or even Delosperma 'Wheels of Wonder Orange'.

Planting and care
It dislikes consistently wet soils in winter, as they can harm its hardiness and eventually kill it. In heavy soil, pure sand can be used to plant the stump without adding any soil. It requires a sunny and sheltered position, protected from severe frosts. During very harsh winters, cover the stumps with straw or dead leaves to create a thick mulch. The soil should be fertile, loose, and moist but well-drained, especially during the flowering period. The plant can tolerate temporary periods of drought, although they can still affect its 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.
