Nepeta ‘Picture Purrfect’

Nepeta 'Picture Purrfect' is a compact catmint forming a low mound of large, purple-blue flowers from early summer to early fall.

Nepeta ‘Picture Purrfect’ is a must for the sunny border. This cultivar is a compact catmint with a broad habit that blooms earlier with larger flowers and bluer tones than others cultivars with flowers starting right at ground level perfect for containers or the front of the border. Deadhead to encourage re-blooming. Also great on slopes and in rock gardens. Drought tolerant once established. Popular with pollinators. Cats love the aroma released from bruised stems. Deer and rabbit resistant.
