Hyssopus officinalis L. has a long and rich history as a medicinal plant due to the health benefits transmitted from generation to generation of usage as a carminative, antiseptic, and cough reliever. These benefits have drawn the attention of the researchers, whom, in the last years, have started to fundament scientifical elements of the hyssops crop technology. This study aims to follow and report the germinative capacity and both fresh and dry herba yield of three hyssops varieties (white, blue and pink). The assessing of herba yield, was done at SCDA Lovrin and the germinative capacity of the studied varieties was determined in the Laboratory for Seed Quality from the Faculty of Agriculture from Timisoara. The results are highlighting significant differences between the varieties regarding germinative capacity, the mass of 1000 grains and both dry and fresh herba yield.
