Lilac catmint flowers sitting on soft grey-green mounds of foliage.
Catmint is an attractive perennial for garden beds and containers that will flower from early summer.
Not to be confused with the white flowering Catnep, Catmint 'Nepeta Mussinii' comes from the town Nepete in Italy, where Catmint was cultivated.
Veteran gardeners know it well for Catmint Nepeta's versatility in the garden, it goes really well with roses and is a popular choice to add a softening effect on hard edges.
