Catnip
Nepeta cataria. This is a great herb to have in the garden. The leaves can be used in teas and for medicinals, and the small, pink flowers are very attractive to bees and other pollinators. And your cats will love it. Remember to protect the young seedlings from your cats until they are more established and can withstand their “love”. Harvest the leaves, dry them, and stuff a satchel as a gift for your special kitty. Easy to grow, sow the tiny seeds in pots inside, barely covering seeds and keep moist until they sprout. When they are a couple of inches tall, transplant to the garden about one foot apart. 75-100 seeds/packet.
