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!
