This variable perennial produces tiered spikes of tubular flowers for a long period from mid summer. The flowers come in a variety of colours including white, pinks ,oranges and reds and are highly-attractive to bees. The mid green foliage has a delicious lemon scent. Perfect for adding some late summer and autumn colour to a sunny border.

Garden care: Avoid the temptation to cut back the faded flower-stems in autumn since they provide interest in the winter months. Lift and divide congested colonies in spring.
