Common name is Mexican giant Hyssop. It is a perennial and grows to reach 50 – 60cm high. It has purple spiked flowers. It is necessary for the seed to pass a cold and humid season which break dormancy in order to produce germination. Requires direct sunlight or partial shade. It can produce flowers when it reaches 1 month old. Sunny days and cooler nights will produce a more intense aroma in the leaves. Its young leaves are used in flavouring foods.
Anise hyssop was used medicinally by Native Americans for cough, fevers, wounds, diarrhea. The soft, anise-scented leaves are used as a seasoning, as a tea, in potpourri, and can be crumbled in salad. The purple flower spike is favored by bees who make a light fragrant honey from the nectar.
