Growing Tips and Planting Advice

Catmint is incredibly forgiving and well-suited to gardeners of all experience levels. Plant your catmint in free-draining soil and a sunny spot for the most abundant blooms. Trim back after flowering to encourage a second flush and maintain the plant’s tidy appearance. Resistant to both deer and rabbits, catmint can be used where other perennials may struggle.
