  • Information
    • Hyssop provides a long season of nectar-sipping by butterflies, hummingbirds and bees as it wafts its anise-mint scent through the garden. It’s also a good cutting flower. Start seed indoors 6 to 8 weeks prior to transplanting out after the last spring frost date, or direct-sow after the last frost date in very well-draining soil. Deer- and disease-resistant and widely adaptable, it is drought- tolerant once established. Pinch back to encourage bushiness. Flowering the first year, it readily self-sows, producing hardy seedlings. Deer resistant. Perennial from horticultural zones 5-10. Summer flowering. Variable height.

    Average seed life: 2 years.

    • Hyssop Sowing Instructions
      Planting Depth      :1/8”
      Seed Spacing:2”-3”
      Plant Spacing:18”
      Days to Germination: 5-20 days
      Germination Temperature:70°-75°F

      Hyssop should be direct-sown after the threat of frost has passed. Sow seeds on top of the soil, leaving the seeds uncovered but pressed firmly onto the soil surface, as light aids germination. It may also be raised as transplants 8 to 10 weeks before the last spring frost date, with even moisture, strong light and air circulation. Harden off the seedlings by gradually acclimating them to the outdoors for a week to 10 days. Prepare a bed in full sunlight with rich, well-draining soil. Thin or transplant to 18" apart. Transplants should be watered regularly to help establish a mature root system for first-year blooms. Once established, it is drought tolerant. Its compact plants have dozens of sturdy spikes studded with tubular flowers. This valuable cut flower is adored by bees, hummingbirds and butterflies. Summer flowering. Height: 1 1⁄2' to 2'.
