 | | | Perennials for Sun or Part Shade: Catmint (Nepeta)
Catmint's small blue flowers are out all summer, and are a boon particularly to bumblebees. It also provides a helpful spot for insects to over-winter, so don't tidy it up too early. 'Six Hills Giant' is a tall, robust variety, but might still need some protection against cats early on.
If we cannot find exactly the variety you would like in the nursery at the moment and we can find a very close alternative, we hope it is acceptable to supply it in lieu. Before we do so, however, we will ask you if you would be happy to accept a substitute.
Flowers: June-September
Soil type: Fertile, well drained
Supplier : Burncoose Nurseries
