25 Seeds Hyssopus officinalis Hyssop Herb Medicinal Aromatic Perennial

25 Seeds Hyssopus officinalis (Hyssop) is an aromatic, evergreen perennial herb prized for its upright, bushy form and spikes of deep blue-purple flowers that attract pollinators. Its narrow, dark green leaves carry a pleasant, camphor-like scent, making it a charming addition to herb gardens, borders, and containers.
This versatile herb offers ornamental appeal and culinary value, with young leaves and flowers used fresh or dried to flavor salads, soups, and stews. It thrives in well-drained soil and full sun, tolerating poor, dry conditions once established, and can be lightly trimmed after flowering to maintain shape. Suitable for USDA zones 3-9, it performs as a short-lived perennial in cooler regions and an evergreen subshrub in milder climates. Sow seeds indoors 8-10 weeks before the last frost or direct sow outdoors in early spring, pressing seeds lightly into the soil surface as they need light to germinate. Space plants 12-18 inches apart, and keep soil evenly moist until seedlings emerge, typically in 14-21 days.
