Nepeta racemosa produces a mass of violet&45;violet flower spikes that cover the mid&45;green leaves from June to September. Its low, spreading habit lends itself particularly well to making good ground cover, as well as softening the edges of borders & paths. Aptly named Catmint, this hardy perennial has a strange effect on cats, who seem to love its fragrant foliage. Just like all Nepeta, this variety will attract plenty of bees to your garden.
