Catmint, Grandview

Perennial zones 3-7. Soft pastel blue, pink and white flower spikes combine for a romantic effect. Cats won’t be the only ones loving this colorful mix; it’s also a major pollinator magnet! Plants reach 1 to 2 feet in height and about 1 to 1.5 feet wide, blooming in high summer, attracting songbirds, hummers, butterflies and bees.

Growing Tips: Surface sow, gently pressing into soil; cover lightly. Alternately you can start indoors and transplant after last frost. Shear plants occasionally to renew them; self-sows readily. Same genus and species as catnip, but catmint grows in more tidy clumps and does not reseed as easily. Catmint is more ornamental and a bit less tolerant of poor soil and prefers loose, well-drained soil.
