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).

Sowing & Growing
Sow indoors, January-April, to flower the same year, 0.5cm (¼”) deep, in a tray of compost. At a temperature of 15-20°C (60-68°F) Keep moist. Seedlings usually appear in 14-21 days. Transplant them 5cm (2″) apart, to other trays when large enough to handle. Gradually accustom young plants to outside conditions (avoid frosts), before planting out into well-drained soil, May-June, 30cm (1′) apart, when frosts are over.
Or, sow outdoors, April-June, to flower the following year, in a seed bed, 0.5cm (¼”) deep, into finely-prepared, well-drained soil, which has already been watered. Thin seedlings to 5cm (2″) apart, before planting out to flowering position in autumn, spacing 30cm (1′) apart. Flowers: June-September.

I have just bought all my new seeds for next year’s vegetables after having such great results this year. Budget seeds are so helpful, I’m a newbie in the veg growing world and they have been helpful in choosing the best seeds to start with etc. also much cheaper than elsewhere so if I do mess up in the future it isn’t costing me so much. I thoroughly recommend Budget Seeds for all your veg and flower seeds.
