A plant that doesn’t need fertilizing?! Given the right growing conditions, catmint is unlikely to run out of gas. Applying additional fertilizer will only result in floppy stems and fewer flowers.
.
If you’re looking for a tough-as-nails plant that will bloom for months on end with very little pampering, catmint is your answer.
.
Great for butterfly gardens, borders, herb gardens, mass plantings, groundcovers, rock gardens, and along the edges of walkways. Can also be used as a substitute for lavender, since they share a similar color palette.
