Nepeta faassenii 'Purrsian Blue', commonly called Catmint, has beautiful compact soft blue flowers above a perfectly formed dome of glaucous scented foliage.
Catmint is excellent for containers or beds and is happy when planted alongside the front of a mixed border or path edge.
Nepetas are fabulous long-flowering perennials that are loved by pollinators. The blue flowers start in May and last until the end of summer.
Once established, Nepeta is a carefree, drought-tolerant plant that is fuss-free and performs reliably in the garden.
'Purrsian Blue' is densely packed with flowers and will spread year after year in the garden.
Plant Care
If you are planting a Nepeta in the garden, lightly fork over it to loosen the soil. Add in organic matter by digging in some Peat-free compost. Once the soil is mixed, dig a small hole with a spade and add a generous handful of Mycorrhizal fungi to the bottom of the planting hole. Place the Nepeta plant and back-fill with soil. Make sure you have not buried the plant lower in the ground than in the pot. After planting, firm the soil around the plant, so the plant's roots are in touch with the garden soil. After planting, water thoroughly and make sure the soil is moist but not too wet for the first two weeks.
Spring: Feed with a Maxicrop seaweed feed to ensure healthy new growth and blooms
Summer: Deadhead throughout summer to ensure a continuous season of blooms. Water during periods of prolonged heat.
Autumn: Cutback in late autumn to ground level
