Nepeta 'Neptune' Plants

Neptune nepeta, or catmint, is a short plant that has large blooms for such a low growing plant.  Unlike other catmints this variety is suitable for the formal garden setting where spacing and neatness are a must.  The violet-blue blooms are borne heavily in mid-late spring through early summer with sporadic blooms throughout the summer and a larger flush of blooms in the fall if deadheaded.  Loved by butterflies, bees, and the occasional hummingbird.  A great container plant as well!
