'Cat's Pajamas' Catmint (Nepeta hybrid)

Nepeta 'Cat's Pajamas' is the perfect mix of charm and practicality! With its neat, ball-shaped habit, this improved catmint boasts long, dark flower stems that hold clusters of striking indigo-blue flowers from the soil to the tips—unlike older varieties that only bloom at the top. Even after the blooms fade, the rosy purple calyxes continue to add a pop of color to your garden. The small, aromatic leaves act as a natural deterrent for deer and rabbits, making it a low-maintenance winner. A smaller-scale version of its larger cousins, 'Cat's Pajamas' is ideal for city gardens or the front of borders, delivering beauty and function in a compact package!
