For vivid, season-long color and unmatched pollinator appeal, ‘Sunrise Red’ Hummingbird Mint is a must-have for sun-drenched landscapes. This compact yet striking perennial produces dense spikes of fiery red, nectar-rich blooms that hummingbirds, butterflies, and bees can’t resist from early summer to fall. The anise-scented, silver-green foliage enhances its appeal while naturally deterring deer and rabbits. Reaching 18-24 inches tall and 12 inches wide, it’s perfect for containers, borders, pollinator gardens, and xeriscapes. Built for heat, drought, and poor soil, ‘Sunrise Red’ thrives where other plants struggle, making it an effortless way to inject bold color into your outdoor space.
