Anise hyssop ‘Black Adder’

Anise hyssop ‘Black Adder’ is a robust and decorative perennial that impresses with its slender, upright flower spikes adorned with deep purple to almost black bracts from which small lavender-coloured flowers emerge. This plant blooms from midsummer to late summer and adds an exotic and colourful charm to the garden. ‘Black Adder’ thrives best in full sun and well-drained soil and is drought tolerant once established. The nectar-rich flowers attract bees, butterflies and other pollinators, making it perfect for flower beds, prairie gardens or as a striking specimen plant.
