Nepeta 'Junior Walker™'

Catmint

This compact Nepeta retains the non-reseeding quality of its popular parent 'Walker's Low' at one third its size. Blue-green foliage contrasts nicely with lavender-blue flowers for a long blooming window from mid-May through September.

Nepeta (ne'-pe-ta)

Family: Lamiaceae · Common Name: Catnip

Fragrant, crinkled gray-green foliage and white to pale lavender flowers. Protect plants until established to prevent damage from wayward cats. Spreads by seed.
