Growing Anise Hyssop

Sow seeds on the surface of the soil and two to four inches apart. Once germinated, thin your seedlings to 12 to 16 inches.

Harvesting Anise Hyssop

Anise hyssop leaves can be harvested with sharp shears and used fresh or dried. Regularly harvesting the flower spikes will result in a longer foliage harvest and bushier plants.
