Catnip is fragrant, and it the absolute favorite of cats! The plants also attract bees, birds, & butterflies.

Catnip is a member of the mint family and is a hardy perennial that has a distinctive fragrance that is intensely attractive to most cats. It is native to Europe, the Middle East and Asia. The small, white flowers are attractive to bees. Grows best in full sunlight and average, well-drained soils. Drought tolerant and deer resistant. The essential oil has mosquito repellent qualities.
