As an open-pollinated species, it is possible and increasingly common for a wild-type stand of A. foeniculum to be pollinated by a different Agastache variety, producing hybrid seed. Hybridization is especially common in urban settings, where ornamental and medicinal hyssop varieties are abundant. Although hybridization is difficult to avoid, maintaining isolation distances of 5,000 meters or more between your stand and other varieties can help. Non-native Agastaches often winterkill as they are hardy to zone 5 and up. Non-native Agastaches are not considered invasive species, and although hybridization is a nuisance, they are nonetheless equally excellent nectar sources for pollinators. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Northern Wildflowers","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41738361634953,"sku":"H1016844","price":4.49,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0373\/3576\/1033\/files\/NorthernWildflowersAniseHyssop.png?v=1761679836"},{"product_id":"northern-wildflowers-lakeshore-wildflower-seed-mix","title":"Northern Wildflowers Large Lakeshore Seed Mix 30g Pkg.","description":"\u003cdiv class=\"shopify-section\" id=\"shopify-section-product-template\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-ajax-enabled=\"true\" data-enable-history-state=\"true\" data-section-type=\"product\" data-section-id=\"product-template\" id=\"ProductSection-product-template\" class=\"product-template__container page-width\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"grid product-single product-single--medium-image\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"grid__item medium-up--one-half\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-single__description rte\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 'Lakeshore Wildflower Seed Mix' is suited to full sun areas and sites with medium to wet conditions.
