This plant typically grows to a height of 2-3 feet with a similar spread. It prefers full sun and is adaptable to a variety of soil conditions, but it thrives best in well-drained, fertile soils. Black Adder Giant Hyssop is also drought-tolerant once established, making it a great choice for xeriscaping or low-water gardens.
