{"product_id":"mango-tango-hummingbird-mint-72-cell-plug-tray","title":"Mango Tango Hummingbird Mint - 72-Cell Plug Tray","description":"\u003cp\u003eMango Tango is a shorter hummingbird mint with flowers that blend light peach and dusky orange above dusky rose calyxes, so the plant reads as a warm red-orange from a distance. Blooms cover most of the plant from midsummer into early fall.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIts compact size, 16 to 18 inches tall, makes it a good choice for containers, edging and the front of a dry, sunny border. The medium green leaves are aromatic, and the flowers attract hummingbirds, butterflies and bees while deer usually leave it alone.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat it looks like\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eShort, dense spikes 2 to 4 inches long of small tubular flowers in light peach shading to dusky orange, each held in a dusky rose calyx, for an overall red-orange effect. Flower spikes cover the top three quarters of the plant. Leaves are medium green, small, oval and toothed, aromatic. The plant is compact and upright, 16 to 18 inches tall and 14 to 16 inches wide. At peak bloom it is a tight, colorful bouquet of peach, orange and rose spikes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eGrowing it with lavender\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eMango Tango enjoys the same sunny, lean, well-drained ground as lavender, and its peach and red-orange spikes pair warmly with lavender's cool purple at the front of a border.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCare\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eGive it full sun and loose, well-drained soil; it tolerates dry spells once established and dislikes soggy winter soil. Hardy in USDA zones 5-9. Leave the stems standing over winter and cut back in spring once new growth appears, since this helps the crowns survive cold, wet weather.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAt a glance\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBotanical name:\u003c\/strong\u003e Agastache\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlower color:\u003c\/strong\u003e Light peach to dusky orange with rose calyxes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFoliage:\u003c\/strong\u003e Medium green\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrowth habit:\u003c\/strong\u003e Compact, upright clump\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMature size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 16–18 in tall × 14–16 in wide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUSDA hardiness zones:\u003c\/strong\u003e 5–9\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLight:\u003c\/strong\u003e full sun\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBloom start:\u003c\/strong\u003e Early-July\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePeak bloom:\u003c\/strong\u003e Early-August\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBloom pattern:\u003c\/strong\u003e Long Blooming\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDeer resistance:\u003c\/strong\u003e Resistant\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePollinator value:\u003c\/strong\u003e Excellent\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSizes and shipping\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eOne full 72-cell plug tray: 72 young starter plugs of this variety (cells about 1⅓ in. wide × 2½ in. deep), rooted and ready to pot up into quarts or gallons.
