Nepetas are easy to grow perennials that provide a beautiful show of color all summer long. They prefer to be planted in full sun and ordinary, well-drained soil. Shearing the plant back in the springtime will promote more compact growth. In addition, cutting plants back by half after their first bloom tends to stimulate a second bloom cycle.Garden Style: Cottage, Eclectic, PrairieOther Uses: Border Plant, Cut Flower, Cut Foliage, Drought Tolerant, Easy To Grow, Edging, Mass Planting
