Plant height of Agastache clayt. ex gronov.

Agastache Clayt. ex Gronov.

Plant height is a key biomorphological trait of Agastache, determining biomass formation potential and the agrotechnical requirements of the crop.

In the reference 8 varieties crop Giant hyssop, where this is mentioned in the description.

Representatives of the genus Agastache are characterized by erect shoots ranging from 0.5 to 3 meters in height. Under field trial and introduction conditions, average heights of generative shoots are often around 100–110 cm, with intensive stem growth observed during the vegetative and budding stages.

Plant height directly correlates with the number of shoots and the length of inflorescences, which influences the choice of planting pattern to ensure optimal aeration. Upon reaching significant heights and forming heavy inflorescences, stems are prone to lodging, which necessitates the use of supports or support netting, especially under conditions of excessive moisture or fertilizer application.
