Nepeta faassenii 'Cat's Meow' is much tidier than other varieties. It maintains its dense, rounded habit all season long making it a great choice for cottage gardens, borders, and mass planting. The small grey-green, fragrant foliage is held by well-branched stems and is offset by beautiful spikes of sky blue flowers with purple calyxes. This variety will quickly become a favorite with its easy maintenance, drought tolerance, and long bloom time.

Homeowner Growing Tips: Grow in full sun, in well-drained soil. Provide some light shade in afternoon if grown in the South. May be trimmed back before blooming to promote a more compact size. Shear after flowering to induce re-bloom. Divide in early summer, if necessary.
