Agastache anethiodora (Nutt.) Britton), commonly called anise hyssop, blue giant hyssop, Fragrant giant hyssop, or the lavender giant hyssop, is a species of perennial plant in the mint family, (Lamiaceae). This plant is native to much of north-central and northern North America, notably the Great Plains and other prairies, and can be found in areas of Canada.[1][2] It is tolerant of deer and drought, and also attracts hummingbirds and butterflies making it an attractive selection for gardeners.[3] Anise hyssop is in the same family as hyssop (the mint family Lamiaceae), but they are not closely related. Hyssop (Hyssopus) is a genus of about 10-12 species of herbaceous or semi-woody plants native from the east Mediterranean to central Asia.[1] DescriptionThis species grows from {{convert|2|ft|cm|abbr=on}} to {{convert|4|ft|cm|abbr=on}} tall and {{convert|1|ft|cm|abbr=on}} wide, in a clump-like, upright shape, with flowers appearing in showy verticillasters, or false whorls, and occasionally branching at the apex.[4] The leaves have an oval, toothed shape with a white tint underneath. The plant blooms in June to September with bright lavender flowers that become more colorful near the tip.[3][5] The root system produces a taproot.[4] UsesAnise hyssop was used medicinally by Native Americans for cough, fevers, wounds, diarrhea. The soft, anise-scented leaves[5] 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.[6] References1. ^1 2 {{PLANTS |symbol=AGFO |taxon=Agastache foeniculum}} {{Taxonbar|from=Q1264088}}{{Lamiaceae-stub|December 2013}}2. ^{{BONAP |genus=Agastache |species=foeniculum |date=2014}} 3. ^1 {{cite web |title=Agastache foeniculum |url=http://www.missouribotanicalgarden.org/PlantFinder/PlantFinderDetails.aspx?kempercode=d554 |work=Missouri Botanical Gardens |accessdate=20 December 2013}} 4. ^1 {{Illinois Wildflowers |prairie|plantx|anise_hyssopx|Anise hyssop |accessdate=20 December 2013}} 5. ^1 {{cite web|title=Agastache foeniculum (Anise hyssop)|url=http://www.finegardening.com/plantguide/agastache-foeniculum-hyssop.aspx|work=Fine Gardening|accessdate=20 December 2013}} 6. ^"Herbs"; Smithsonian Handbook - Lesley Bremness 4 : Agastache|Plants used in traditional Native American medicine|Flora of North America|Plants used in Native American cuisine |
