Anise Hyssop

Anise Hyssop grows in my rain garden in the transition (least wet) zone. It "self-sows readily" according to the back of the Seed Savers packet and according to my experience.

Herbal Uses

It is antiviral and a mucolytic that we have had much luck with in treating summer colds. Tear off a leaf, chew and swallow.
