Hummingbird Mint (Agastache rupestris)
Hummingbird Mint is the “crown jewel” of Santa Fe pollinator gardens. Because it is native to the mountains of the Southwest, it is perfectly adapted to our 7,000+-ft altitude and is considered one of the highest-rated plants for hummingbirds and long-tongued bees. The vibrant colors of purple, red, orange, pink, and blue easily catch a pollinator’s eye.
