Why Choose Catmint for Your Garden?

Catmint is prized not only for its attractive blooms, but also for its incredible versatility in the landscape. These robust perennials cope well with New Zealand’s variable climate and are drought-tolerant once established. They’re perfect for edging pathways, softening the lines of garden beds, or filling gaps in sunny borders. Catmint also releases a pleasant herbal fragrance when brushed past and is known to be a magnet for bees and butterflies. For cat lovers, catmint offers a non-invasive, garden-friendly alternative to the classic catnip.

When considering where can I buy catmint plants, it’s useful to know there are several stunning varieties for New Zealand gardeners. Here are some customer favourites:

Each variety brings something a little different to the garden, so you can find the ideal catmint for your needs, whether you want a compact type or a grand, rolling effect.

Alternative Plants to Pair with Catmint

Catmint’s soft tones pair wonderfully with other perennials and shrubs. For a uniquely New Zealand twist, consider planting catmint alongside Prostanthera Eddington Blue (Mint Bush Plant).
