The mounded growth habit and tall, flowering stems make the Purrsian Blue Catmint an excellent addition to a butterfly garden or an area that needs consistent color. The Nepeta faassenii boasts tiny, periwinkle blooms from June through September. The flowers grow along tall stems that reach about 18 inches tall.

Include this looker in beds, borders, or mass plantings. This upright plant has a very full and rounded appearance, so it will completely fill in a space. Butterflies, bees, and hummingbirds enjoy the fragrant flowers. Most foraging animals do not like the Purrsian Blue Catmint, but cats do enjoy nibbling on the leaves, so plant in an area accessible to feline visitors. This plant is a perennial in USDA zones 3 through 8.

Purrsian Blue Catmint Care

Plant Purrsian Blue Catmint in full sun in moist, well-drained soil. Water this plant when the top few inches of soil are dry. Purrsian Blue Catmint is drought-tolerant but continue to water during a dry spell to support consistent growth. A light dose of balanced fertilizer each spring encourages new growth.

Prune this plant by up to one-third during the growing season if the stems appear leggy. Cut back all of the growth in late fall or early spring.

Purrsian Blue Catmint Spacing

Purrsian Blue Catmint is an upright perennial that will grow 14 to 18 inches tall and 18 to 30 inches wide. Plants can be spaced 16 to 28 inches apart for a full and dense look.

Plant Addicts Warranty - 1 Year (Extra Purchase Required)

We encourage all plant lovers to purchase the Plant Addicts Warranty, whether you're a new gardener or an expert. There are many variables outside of anyone's control that can cause a plant to die. Hungry animals, drought, poor soil conditions, over watering, diseases & pests are all good examples of what can cause plants to die. The Plant Addicts Warranty is a 1 year warranty protecting you from all of the unknowns and will replace your plant if something were to happen to it.

The warranty is purchased on a per plant basis and must be purchased at the same time as the plant(s). We will cover 100% of the price of the plant, but the warranty does not cover shipping costs. SImply let us know if your plant has died within 1 year of receiving it and we will get you a new one shipped out as soon as possible (depending on the time of the year and availability). We may ask for photos for documentation purposes, but we try to make the process as easy as possible.

Guarantee and Warranty

Plant Shipping

Below are some factors we consider when determining when to ship the plants depending on the timing of the order.

Winter to Early Spring

We ship only when it's warm enough to plant in your growing zone.
Sometimes plants aren't completely ready to sell and ship in early spring. We will wait until the plants are ready before shipping so you don't get a subpar product.
For Southern plants we will be able to ship much earlier than plants coming from our northern nursery.

Summer

If there is extreme heat we may delay shipping for a week or several weeks.
We review what areas the plants are traveling through as well as your location.

Fall into Winter

We’ll ship plants out all the way up to the end of the fall planting season!

Winter

Get your order in early to reserve your plants for Spring planting!

Once your plant is shipped you’ll receive an automated email with tracking information.
