Featured Plant: Nepeta (Catmint)

Staff Pick: Nepeta (Catmint)

Easy, breezy, and beautiful—Nepeta, often called Catmint, is a true garden favorite. This hardy perennial is loved for its clouds of soft, lavender-blue flowers that bloom for weeks, even months, attracting pollinators like bees and butterflies all season long. Its aromatic, gray-green foliage adds a soft, romantic texture to gardens and is wonderfully deer- and rabbit-resistant.

Nepeta is incredibly adaptable, thriving in sunny spots with well-drained soil. It’s drought-tolerant once established, making it an excellent choice for low-maintenance gardens, pollinator beds, borders, and rock gardens. Plus, it handles heat and humidity with ease.

Many gardeners use Nepeta as a graceful edging plant or let it tumble over walls and pathways for a casual, cottage-style look. It’s easy to grow, easy to love—and cats aren’t the only ones who adore it!
