  • Fragrant, easy to grow perennial; hardy to -40 degrees
  • Fresh or dried, a delight for cats
  • Makes a relaxing lemon-mint flavored herbal tea
  • Enough seeds to plant one 60 foot row; grows 1-3 feet tall
  • Nepeta cataria

Catnip tea is the most relaxing of all herbal teas. Not exactly tasty however. Honey does help. Your cat will not find Catnip relaxing! This is easy to grow from seed, but it is a bit of a slow germinator.
