Nepeta cataria

An easy to grow evergreen perennial herb with aromatic, greyish-green leaves. Great for garden and path edges as it adds a soft touch to hard borders. The whitish or light lavender flowers bloom in summer. Cats love this hardy plant. The leaves are used in herbal tea and are said to be good for treating cold/flu symptoms. Dried leaves keep their scent & can be used in pot-pourri or as an insect repellent. Grows to 50cm. 100 seeds.
