Beschreibung

Hyssop belongs to the family of labiates. It is a semi-shrub that copes well with drought. Hyssop can grow about 60 cm high and wide. The leaves of the perennial are small, pointed and dark green. The flowers resemble those of thyme. The whole plant gives off a spicy, aromatic fragrance.

Anbautipps

Hyssop is a thermophilic plant. It can be grown in advance in February or sown directly in May. As the seeds are light germinators, they are placed on the soil (covered with a thin layer at most) and watered. In the right location, the perennial is largely undemanding. To make it feel at home, plant it in a sunny, sheltered spot with loose soil. Hyssop is insensitive to drought and only needs a little watering in summer. The plants are also relatively hardy. It is sufficient to cover them with coniferous branches. The perennial only needs to be kept frost-free for the first winter. If the hyssop has been in the same location for a long time, you should fertilize it from time to time. You should also add some garden lime to soils that are poor in lime.
