Growing Information
Anise Hyssop is native to central and northern North America and adapts to full sun to partial shade with well-drained, average to dry soil. Mature plants typically reach 2–4 feet in height and bloom from early summer through fall with blue to lavender flower spikes. Seeds benefit from cold stratification but can germinate without it; surface sowing in fall or brief stratification before spring planting is recommended as light aids germination. Once established, plants readily reseed and return reliably each year. Hardy in USDA zones 4–8.
