Anise Hyssop - 300 seeds
Agastache foeniculum, also known as anise hyssop, is a perennial plant native to North America. This aromatic and ornamental plant is prized for its distinctive anise-like aroma and its beautiful flowers in shades of lavender, purple, or white.
Anise hyssop features grayish-green foliage and lance-shaped leaves that release a pleasant fragrance when rubbed. The flowers, clustered in dense spikes, attract a variety of pollinators such as bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds, making it an ideal plant for promoting biodiversity in the garden.
This plant is known for its resilience and ability to thrive in a wide range of climatic conditions and soil types. It prefers a sunny or partially sunny exposure and well-drained soils. It is a low-maintenance plant that can tolerate periods of drought once established.
In addition to its ornamental value and attraction to pollinators, anise hyssop also has culinary and medicinal uses. The leaves and flowers can be used to make herbal tea infusions with a pleasant anise flavor. They can also be used as a seasoning in salads, desserts, and other dishes.
