Nepeta Walker’s Low #1

Common Name: Catmint, Catnip

Gray-green, aromatic foliage gives way to a plethora of soft lavender-blue flowers which are produced over a long period in summer. Although the stems are 2-3′ long, the plant’s arching habit brings the height down to 18-24″ if it is not staked.

When Nepeta’s stems are broken, they release an aroma into the air that tends to attract cats, thus its common name, Catmint.
