Plant Description: Dwarf, mounding perennial with oval, deeply veined, grayish green, aromatic leaves. Summer brings loose clusters of small lavender blue catnip and is somewhat enticing to cats.
Maintenance
Perennial - Herbaceous (soft-stemmed plants that die in winter and regrow in spring): Remove spent blooms to promote rebloom later. Some plants tend to flop over after the first bloom and attempt to regrow from the base; in these cases, the old stems can be cut away in the summer. As plants become dormant in the fall, remove dead leaves and stems.
