The flat flower heads of Achilleas are great for insects to land on and attract many pollinators, especially hoverflies. This variety is best grown in full sun and well-draining soil and looks great in the middle of a garden border. Division every three to five years will rejuvinate the plant.

Agastache can be planted in containers for the first season and then be planted into your garden border for the following seasons.

This deciduous perennial can grow up to 1m tall and attracts butterflies, which is why it’s also called butterfly weed. Clusters of flat bright-orange flowers in midsummer are followed by long seedpods.
Cobalt blue flowers that resemble butterflies emerge in summer and last all the way into autumn. The plants can cope with light frosts but might need extra protection during extreme cold temperatures. Cut back in late summer to encourage a second flush in autumn and then trim the following year in spring to strenghten new growth.
