If you’re like me when you first heard the name, you wondered, “What the heck is it?” Well, first of all, it’s a shrubby perennial that belongs to the mint family, and it does have a slight minty order. It was brought to our country from Europe by early settlers. Basically, hyssop provides a green plant with extensive “blue” flowers in whorls that last from June through September. It can be planted singularly or spaced 12” apart to provide a garden edge border. It can easily be trimmed or left alone to reach its mostly 18” up to 24” height. With an up to 18” spread, stems/flowers can be trimmed without creating plant gaps to provide an interesting cut flower bouquet that lasts longer than many cut flower arrangements.
