Hyssop – The "Pollinator Paradise" for Fragrant Blue Spires and Ancient Healing Traditions
Shop the highest quality Hyssop seeds and transform your garden into a buzzing sanctuary of life. When it comes to attracting beneficial insects, Hyssop is the "Honeybee Magnet." This heirloom is famous for its fragrant, minty foliage and tall spires of violet-blue flowers that keep the garden humming all summer long. At The Seed Guy, we believe we aren't just selling seeds; we are planting a feast for the butterflies, a legacy of ancient herbal healing, and the aromatic beauty of a true cottage garden.
In the garden, Hyssop is a hardy, semi-evergreen shrub that adds structure and scent to your beds. This variety is the premier choice for anyone who wants to "get your aroma on"—offering a sweet, camphor-like fragrance that is world-class for herbal teas and potpourri. It is a fantastic companion plant for cabbage and grapes, as it deters the dreaded cabbage white butterfly while drawing in the bees needed for a heavy fruit set. At The Seed Guy, our seeds are tested for elite germination, ensuring you get lush, flowering bushes that provide a "Prize-Winning Harvest" of both nectar and beauty.

Hyssop Planting Instructions:
1. When to Plant: Sow seeds indoors 8-10 weeks before the last frost, or direct sow in the garden once the soil has warmed in late spring.
2. Preparation: Select a location with full sun and light, well-draining soil. Hyssop doesn't like "wet feet."
3. Sowing: Sow seeds 1/4 inch deep. Lightly firm the soil over the seeds.
4. Care: Once established, Hyssop is very drought-tolerant. Pruning the plant back in early spring will help maintain a bushy, compact shape.
5. Pests and Diseases: Naturally pest-resistant due to its aromatic oils. Harvest the flowering tops in mid-summer for drying.
