Abstract

Nettleleaf giant hyssop (Agastache urticifolia [Benth.] Kuntze) belongs to the Lamiaceae or mint family, Mentheae tribe, and Nepetinae subtribe (Drew and Sytsma 2012). The Agastache genus is comprised of two sections, Agastache (syn: Chiastandra) and Brittonastrum, which are geographically distinct. Nettleleaf giant hyssop is part of the more northerly distributed Agastache section (Lint and Epling 1945; Vogelmann 1985). Taxonomy for this review follows Cronquist et al. (1984).
