Agastache and Hyssopus are two different genera in the Labiatae or mint
family.  A. foeniculum is primarily found in the U.S. Southwest.

To confuse the issue, there is a scholarly disagreement as to whether
biblical hyssop is a member of genus Origanum (marjoram)or Capparis spinoza
(the caper plant).

John Gerard's hyssop is H. officinalis.
