Nepeta

Catmint, also known as nepeta, is a charming perennial that is easy to grow and appreciated by many. A nepeta plant has smooth grey-green leaves and clouds of little lavender-blue blooms. It gives borders and garden edges a relaxed, natural look. This tough plant is a favourite in UK gardens because it flowers for a long time and doesn't need much care. You can name it catmint or cat mint.

Catmint plants are both pretty and useful. They are great for sunny borders, paths, and cottage-style gardens. Once they are established, they can handle dry weather and attract bees and other pollinators. Many nepeta plants may bloom for months, especially if you prune them lightly after the first flush. This will give you colour from late spring to fall.
