Description

Catmint Cat's Pajamas delivers a showstopper performance in late spring through summer, producing masses of gorgeous blue-purple blooms paired with softly aromatic, gray-green foliage. This fresh, compact perennial is a satisfying addition to the landscape, drawing in butterflies while maintaining a polished appearance. It also does well in containers, adding a refreshing burst of color and elegant style to patios or entryways. Deer typically avoid this modern standout, letting its finest features remain on full display.

General Care

• Sunlight: Thrives in full sun to partial shade, with at least 4–6 hours of direct sunlight daily.
• Watering: Provide consistent moisture during the first few years to encourage a strong root system; once established, requires minimal supplemental watering except in prolonged dry periods.
• Mulching: A 2–3 inch layer of mulch regulates soil temperature and conserves moisture. Keep mulch slightly away from stems to encourage healthy airflow.
• Pruning: Shear back after the initial flush of flowers to promote a second bloom. Cut down old stems in late fall or early spring for a tidy start to the next season.

Catmint Cat's Pajamas adds a stunning pop of color and a lovely fragrance to Michigan landscapes, ensuring a refreshing and uplifting presence from spring to fall.
