The perennial shrub is the only Agastache variety from the Chinese-Japanese area. As Huo Xiang, it belongs to the herbs of Traditional Chinese Medicine. In Europe, we use Korean Mint rather as a tea herb and for flavouring dishes. Especially in Korean cuisine, the plant has a firm place as a spice with its excellent mint-anise flavour. Furthermore, it's a very beautiful and useful shrub for the near-natural garden. It continuously blooms from July to autumn and shows its most often purple, rarer white panicles. It grows on you fast as it exudes a pleasant scent and butterflies love the blossoms and fly around them constantly. Also in winter, the seed stands are very decorative. The Korean Mint is very undemanding and carefree. It tolerated dry, barren soils and doesn't need care once it has established itself. The blossoms suit as cut flowers for the vase.
