Thinking about: Hyssop for the Garden
Watched an episode of Gardening by the Yard that discussed the wonders of Hyssop. Great for upping the butterfly and hummingbird activity. I like those activities A LOT!
This type, Agastache rupestris, with it's tube-like flowers are great for the humming birds

There are some "blue" varieties that are especially alluring to me and some with a bit of orange that Mr. VCA will enjoy.

I will tell you right now we have the blue/purple hyssop and it is an absolute crack den for bees which is awesome! I am hoping to get more throughout the yard and even put some nearby the veggie garden. the fact that deer do not like them is a plus indeed. Also, if you do not mind letting mint growing wild, deer dislike that as well as oregano.
