Introducing 'Catwalk Queen' Catmint, a stunning addition to any garden or landscape. With its striking lavender-blue blooms, this perennial graces your outdoor space with elegance and charm. Flowers are exceptionally large, more than twice the size of typical varieties. Individual panicles are long, extending the period of bloom before being cut back. Leaves are exceptionally thick, held on a stocky, sturdy habit. Perfect for lining the front of the border or filling in hot, dry garden spaces.
When Nepeta's stems are broken, they release an aroma into the air that tends to attract cats, thus its common name, Catmint.

Nepetas are easy to grow perennials that provide a beautiful show of color all summer long. They prefer to be planted in full sun and ordinary, well-drained soil. Shearing the plant back in the springtime will promote more compact growth. In addition, cutting plants back by half after their first bloom tends to stimulate a second bloom cycle.
