Carbeth Plants Catmint Herb Plant - CATMINTHRB-1

Yes, Catmint (Nepeta) is safe for cats and is actually known for attracting them, though it may result in them rolling in or nibbling the leaves.

The plant typically reaches a mature height of up to 45cm.

Catmint is generally not a heavy feeder. If planted in decent garden soil, it rarely requires supplemental fertilizer.

Yes, it can be grown in containers, but ensure the pot is large enough to accommodate the roots and has adequate drainage holes.

Pruning is best done in late winter or early spring to remove dead stems and again after the main flowering period to promote tidier growth.

Absolutely. It is an RHS-recognized plant for pollinators and is highly effective at attracting bees and butterflies.

Check soil drainage; Catmint does not like 'wet feet' and may need to be moved to a better-draining site.

Ensure the plant is receiving at least 6 hours of sunlight daily, as shade inhibits flower production.

Prune back the edges of the plant after the first bloom cycle to contain growth and encourage a second flush of flowers.
