The genus Agastache has deep roots in two very different worlds. It encompasses around 30 aromatic species native to central and eastern Asia, Mexico, and the United States

The name itself is telling: it derives from the Greek agan ("very much") and stachys ("ear of wheat"), a reference to the dense, abundant flower spikes that have made it beloved by gardeners and foragers alike.

The leaves can be used to flavor salads, raw vegetables, sauces, dishes, or desserts, or can be steeped as a tea. Its flowers, arranged in spikes or clusters depending on the variety, are abundant throughout the summer and attract many pollinating insects.
