Catmint 'Walker's Low'

A garden favorite, Catmint 'Walker's Low' (Nepeta x faassenii) forms fragrant mounds of gray-green foliage topped by showy spikes of periwinkle-blue flowers from late spring through summer. The aromatic leaves deter deer and rabbits while attracting hummingbirds and butterflies.

Excellent for cascading over walls, spilling from containers, or as a drought-tolerant groundcover once established. Thrives in full sun to partial sun with moderate moisture. Herbaceous perennial, under 2 feet tall, spreading 1 foot or less. A reliable, long-blooming workhorse.
