Description:

15” x 18” wide, (cutting propagated). I recently discovered a group of Nepeta 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 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.

Special Notes:

Plant with Centranthus ruber, Tanacetum niveum, Achillea kellereri and Veronica incanta!
