Compact, mounded habit is a major step forward for catmint!
Low-maintenance perennial plant blooms for months—and attracts bees and butterflies with its fragrant, periwinkle-blue flowers. It nearly doubles its spread in the second year. Like other catmints, it releases a cat-attracting fragrance when its stems are broken; unlike others, its tidy habit won't get "leggy" during its flowering period. Drought-tolerant plant looks stunning planted near the edges of flowerbeds or in herb gardens. Rabbit and deer resistant.Nepeta faassenii
