Hyssopus officinalis. Known for its upright growth and striking blue to purple flower spikes, it attracts pollinators like bees and butterflies. Traditionally valued for its medicinal properties and use in herbal teas, hyssop also adds a bold, minty flavor to culinary dishes. Its fragrant foliage and drought tolerance make it a favorite in herb gardens and borders. Hyssop thrives in full sun and well-drained soil, offering both ornamental beauty and functional value. It has been cherished since ancient times for its cleansing and healing qualities.

I wanted to get these started early in the year so they were strong when it came time to transplant them out to the orchard. What I wasn’t counting on was how quickly the seeds germinated. It wasn’t even the best of conditions in that tray, but they didn’t care. I looked away for what seemed like a few minutes (but was only over the weekend) and they were all up.
I will never have to buy another packet of these seeds again since it’s a perennial, but if anyone is on the fence, don’t hesitate!
Has grown well over two plantings (spring and fall). Beautiful indigo flower spikes that I love using in cut flower bouquets. Flowers have a long vase life.
Haven't used these seeds yet, as it is winter in the Northwest. I anticipate that the seeds will germinate just as well as all the other seeds I have purchased from MI Gardener. I have never had any issues or concerns when purchasing from MI Gardener, I get nearly all my seeds from them. Love this company :)
YET TO GROW BUT ALL SEEDS i HAVE PURCHASED ARE AMAZING. VERY HAPPY WITH MY PURCHASES.
Good buy, just what I wanted. Love them.
Awesome color on these. Beautiful addition to the (majority pink shades) zinnias I usually grow.
I have way more celery than I have room to plant!
Planted my basil as soon as thepackets arrived!
Last year I decided to plant a "tunnel" of sunflowers on the other side of my tall blueberry bushes and these added a colorful variety to the typical yellow! These are now a favorite that will be a "grow again!"
I received a packet of this mix with a previous greenstalk order through MIgardener (best price around!) and was pleasantly surprised how easy it was to grow and how delicious it was! I’ve never grown salad greens before and this was the perfect mix. Even after burning out on gardening late in the summer, I will always look forward to growing this salad green mix in the spring. Thanks for introducing me!
