Medicinally, an infusion helps relieve bronchial congestion. It's also a tonic for the digestive and nervous system. The flowers are delicious tossed in salad and it makes a good companion plant, attracting pollinating insects into the garden.

Caution Hyssop essential oil can cause epilectic fits and should not be taken medicinally when pregnant.
