Description

Lavender-blue flower spikes, aromatic foliage and months of easy summer colour make this compact Catmint a superb choice for sunny gardens.

Nepeta Catmint 'Neptune' is a bushy, early-flowering perennial that earns its place in borders, gravel gardens, cottage-style planting and patio containers. Its upright lavender-blue blooms rise above green-grey aromatic foliage, creating a soft, relaxed display from June through to October.

This easy-going plant thrives in full sun and moist, well-drained soil, giving gardeners long-lasting colour with very little fuss. It forms neat clumps, softens edges beautifully and helps fill sunny spaces with movement, scent and reliable seasonal impact.

The flowers attract butterflies and other pollinating insects, while the aromatic leaves add extra character. Also known as Catmint or Catnip, it may also tempt cats, which often enjoy rolling in the foliage.

Supplied as an established plant in a 9cm pot, ready to plant.

Top Tips
Cut back once the flowering has finished if you want to keep the plant compact.
Care Information
  • Position in full sun or partial-shade and grow in moist but well-drained soil.
  • May need support in windy conditions to prevent it from flopping over.
  • Prefers fairly dry conditions
  • It should be cut back after flowering to keep it compact and encourage second flowering.
  • Insert sticks into the soil to prevent cats from flattening the plant.
