This plant is a favorite among cats, attracting them with its enticing scent; however, be cautious as they may often roll and rest on the plants within the border. The leaves can be dried to craft catnip toys for your pet. If sown early, it blooms in the first year. A Hardy Perennial, it reaches a maximum height of 70cm (28in).
