Catnip Herb Heirloom Seeds

Nepeta cataria, commonly known as catnip, is a hardy and versatile perennial herb. While it is best known for its euphoric effects on cats, it also has several other uses. For example, it makes a wonderful, calming tea that has an appealing lemon-mint flavor. The plant features light green foliage and lavender flowers that are especially attractive to bees, making it a valuable addition to pollinator gardens. It grows well in most soil types and can reach a height of 3-4 feet. It is also possible to grow catnip indoors year-round, making it a convenient option for herb enthusiasts who live in colder climates or who don't have outdoor garden space.
