Nepeta faassenii 'Select Blue'
Blue Catmint
Quick Facts :: Growing Tips
Legend
Description:
15” x 18” wide, (cutting propagated). I recently discovered a group of Nepeta x faassenii plants with noticeably bluer flowers. Identical in all other respects to what we have been selling for years, you will delight in this new find. Nepeta x faassenii has become a cornerstone in many xeriscapes because of its hardiness, longevity and long period of bloom. The first flush of flower comes in late spring. When deadheaded promptly you will enjoy a second flush of blooms in late summer. Out of flower, the neat mound of foliage has a pleasing fragrance, texture and gray-green color. By the way, this is a sterile plant that will not reseed and make a weed of itself like other more common catmints. Zones 4-9. Available in Premium 5” Pots!
Special Notes:
Plant with Centranthus ruber, Tanacetum niveum, Achillea kellereri and Veronica incanta!
