POQUITO® Butter Yellow Agastache

[Terra Nova’s cultivar profile](https://www.terranovanurseries.com/product/agastache-poquito-butter-yellow/) describes POQUITO® Butter Yellow as a compact, mounding hyssop with dense butter-yellow flower spikes above green, aromatic foliage. Its small size suits sunny borders, containers, and mixed beds, where the long summer-to-fall display can brighten a tight space. ## Landscape Use Use it as a low color spot near a path or patio, in a container, or in the front of a mixed perennial bed. The flowering stems can also be cut. Terra Nova reports that bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds visit the fragrant flowers and foliage. ## Size and Siting Allow about 10–13 inches in height and 15 inches in spread, the mature dimensions listed by [Terra Nova](https://www.terranovanurseries.com/product/agastache-poquito-butter-yellow/). It grows best in full sun and well-drained soil; excellent winter drainage is important. The breeder lists USDA Zones 5–10. ## Seasonal Interest and Water Terra Nova lists June through September bloom, while the [Jordan Valley Water Conservancy District Conservation Garden Park](https://conservationgardenpark.jvwcd.gov/plants/3263/poquito-butter-yellow-hummingbird-mint) records bloom from June through October. Once established, the breeder describes this cultivar as drought tolerant and a low-water user. Water while new plants establish, then reduce supplemental irrigation as conditions allow. ## Maintenance Keep excess winter moisture away from the crown. Remove faded spikes for a tidier look or to encourage another flush of color.
