Rue is a hardy, perennial herb with bluish-green, feathery foliage and small yellow flowers that bloom in summer. It grows up to 2-3 feet tall and thrives in full sun and well-drained, dry to moderately fertile soil. Traditionally used in herbal medicine and as an insect repellent, rue has a strong, bitter aroma. It’s drought-tolerant, deer-resistant, and attracts pollinators while deterring pests. Caution is advised, as its sap can cause skin irritation in sunlight. Rue is a low-maintenance plant, making it ideal for herb gardens and ornamental borders.
