Description ‘Golden Jubilee’ anise hyssop (Agastache) is equally at home in herb gardens, perennial borders, and pollinator plantings. The distinctive feature of this seed strain is its fragrant, bright yellow foliage (particularly brilliant in spring to early summer). It also produces purple-blue flower spikes atop 2- to 3-foot-tall stems through summer into fall. Bees love them! Pinch off the faded spikes to encourage rebloom or leave them on the plant if you’d like to get self-sown seedlings. Full sun to light shade. Perennial; Zones 4 to 9. (Just FYI, spring-started seedlings usually flower the first year, so you can also grow this as an annual.) A side note: I’ve always known of ‘Golden Jubilee’ as a strain of our native Agastache foeniculum, and some respected sources still attribute it to that species, but I’ve recently noticed that many others now attribute it to Agastache rugosa. Until I come across a definitive answer to this conundrum, I am leaving out the specific epithet, and I’m not classifying ‘Golden Jubilee’ as a selection of a U.S. native (even though I still think it is). Collected in early to mid September 2025. At least 25 seeds. Shipping to U.S. addresses only. Please read the germination information as well before ordering.
