Description
Blue Catmint (Nepeta faassenii) is a hardy, perennial herb known for its fragrant, gray-green foliage and abundant spikes of soft blue to lavender flowers that bloom from late spring to early fall. This low-maintenance plant forms a dense, mounded habit, making it an excellent choice for borders, rock gardens, and cottage-style landscapes. Blue Catmint thrives in full sun and well-draining soil, exhibiting exceptional drought and heat tolerance once established.
Its aromatic leaves deter deer and rabbits, while its nectar-rich flowers attract bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds, making it a pollinator-friendly garden addition. With its long-lasting blooms, soft texture, and easy-care nature, Blue Catmint is a versatile and beautiful choice for adding color and movement to any garden setting.
