Hyssopus officinalis

Excellent beneficial insect attractant. Blooms in early summer with lavender blue flowers on bushy plants. Well known for its historical medicinal properties, lesser known for its once common culinary uses. Lightly cover seeds indoors and transplant at 18" after danger of frost. Moderately frost-tolerant.

When to Seed Hyssop

This perennial bloom should be direct seeded into the garden in early spring or transplanted once all danger of frost has passed. 

Where to Plant Hyssop

This plant will appreciate a spot with full sun. Loose, well-draining soil is ideal but this plant will tolerate a wide range of growing conditions. It is perennial, so keep that in mind when choosing a planting location. 

Growing Hyssop

Sow seeds on the surface of the soil and four to six inches apart. Once mature, thin to 12 to 18 inches apart. When established, this herb is low maintenance. 

Harvesting Hyssop

Hyssop flower spikes and leaves can be harvested and used fresh or dried. Use sharp shears to harvest what you want, leaving at least ⅔ of the plant intact.
