A favorite
I really (really!) like hyssop-leaved boneset. I grow it in full sun (in central Arkansas), and it flowers in August when a lot of other plants look exhausted. It's a huge draw for pollinators, does not take much supplemental water, and it's reliably upright (at least in my clay soils). I also find this to be a romantic plant in winter.
