Nepeta mussinii


The catmint plant (Nepeta mussinii) is an excellent addition to any garden. With its beautiful lavender-blue flowers, aromatic leaves, and ability to attract cats, catmint is both attractive and functional. 

The Growers Exchange offers top-quality catmint plants grown sustainably by our team without harmful chemicals. Discover the benefits of this versatile plant, and see how it can improve your garden.


What Is the Catmint Plant?

The catmint plant is a member of the mint family (Lamiaceae). It is known for its drought tolerance and long blooming season.

Catmint Appearance and Characteristics

The catmint plant is highly ornamental, with its soft, gray-green leaves that are aromatic when crushed. Its most notable feature is the beautiful catmint flower, which blooms in shades of lavender and blue.

The plant has a spreading, bushy habit and can grow anywhere from 12 to 24 inches tall, depending on the variety. Its foliage forms a neat mound, and the flowers appear on upright spikes, creating a stunning display throughout the growing season. Planting catmint is a great way to add color to garden borders and walkways. 

One of the unique qualities of the catmint plant is its ability to bloom over an extended period. It produces eye-catching blooms from late spring to fall, especially if deadheaded regularly. Catmint's longevity and resilience make it an excellent choice for gardeners looking for a plant that requires minimal effort yet provides lasting beauty.

Catnip vs. Catmint: What's the Difference? 

Like catmint, catnip (Nepeta cataria) is a member of the mint family. Both plants can stimulate felines as they contain nepetalactone, which induces playful and euphoric behavior in many cats. 

However, some cats seem unaffected by catnip but are drawn to catnip, and vice versa. The concentration of nepetalactone can vary between the two, which may explain different reactions. Individual feline sensitivity to this compound can also influence their preferences, as some cats are genetically predisposed to respond to nepetalactone while others are not.

The two plants share a similar fragrance, but catmint is more commonly used in gardens because of its decorative qualities and ability to attract beneficial pollinators. Catmint is also a practical choice for gardeners seeking a plant that is both beautiful and easy to care for.


Catmint Origins and History

Native to Europe, Asia, and the Mediterranean, catmint has been cultivated for centuries for its ornamental beauty and practical uses. Historically, it was used as a mild remedy for colds and digestive issues. Gardeners also relied on catmint for its pest-repelling qualities and ability to attract pollinators. Today, it is still appreciated for its ability to enhance a garden's aesthetic appeal and support pollinator populations.

Catmint Plant Care: Growing Tips

Caring for the catmint plant is straightforward, making it perfect for gardeners of all skill levels. Follow these catmint plant care tips to keep your plant healthy and thriving:

Light: Catmint plants thrive in full sun but can also tolerate partial shade. For the best flowering results, give your plants at least 6 hours of sunlight daily.

Temperature: These plants are hardy in USDA zones 3-8, making them suitable for a wide range of climates. They can tolerate both heat and cooler temperatures, performing well in various environments.

Soil: Catmint prefers well-draining soil but is highly adaptable. It can thrive in poorer soils, including dry, rocky, or less fertile areas. Its ability to survive in tough conditions makes it an ideal plant for gardens with challenging soil types.

Watering: Once established, catmint requires little watering. It is drought-tolerant and does well in dry conditions, making it a great choice for low-water gardens or xeriscaping. However, during particularly dry spells, deep watering may be necessary to keep the plant thriving.

Fertilizing: Catmint doesn't require heavy feeding. A light application of a balanced, all-purpose fertilizer in the spring will help promote healthy growth and vigorous blooms.

Pruning: Deadheading spent flowers will encourage more blooms throughout the growing season. In late fall, you can trim back the plant to maintain a neat appearance and prepare it for fresh growth in the spring.

Uses and Benefits of Catmint Plants

The catmint plant offers a wide range of benefits, making it a valuable addition to any garden:

  • Attracts Pollinators: The catmint flower is highly attractive to bees, butterflies, and other pollinators, helping to support local ecosystems. Gardeners looking to create a pollinator-friendly environment will find catmint to be a perfect choice.

  • Deer and Rabbit Resistant: One of the plant's practical advantages is its resistance to deer and rabbits. These animals tend to avoid catmint, which makes it a low-maintenance plant in areas where wildlife might otherwise be an issue.

  • Deters Pests: Catmint is also a great insect deterrent, especially against aphids and Japanese beetles.

  • Drought Tolerant: Once established, catmint is highly drought-tolerant, making it an excellent choice for gardens in arid regions. Its ability to thrive with minimal water makes it ideal for xeriscaping and low-water garden designs.

  • Versatile Garden Use: Whether along garden borders, in rock gardens, or as ground cover, catmint adds vibrant color and soft texture to any garden setting. Its ability to spread and fill gaps and spaces also helps suppress weeds, providing a natural and attractive ground cover option.

  • Natural Companion Plant: Catmint pairs well with various other plants, making it an excellent companion in mixed garden beds. For instance, its soft, flowing form complements bolder perennials like daylilies, roses, and echinacea.

  • Traditional Herbal Uses: Historically, catmint was brewed into teas to help with mild digestive and respiratory issues. While it is no longer commonly used for these purposes, its history as a traditional medicinal herb appeals to those interested in herbal gardening.

A foaming cleanser that doesn't dry out my skin!
Style: Tolerance Daily Foaming Facial Cleanser
I have very dry, reactive skin and initially looked past this face wash because it is foaming which is usually a no-go for my skin. I am pleasantly surprised with how well my skin tolerated this product. No dryness or irritation and my face felt clean. I also love that it is fragrance free because fragrances seem to really irritate my skin and who needs to smell their face wash? I am happy to say this is another great product from Avene!

Gentle cleanser for dry and sensitive skin.
Style: Tolerance Daily Foaming Facial Cleanser, Style: Tolerance Daily Foaming Facial Cleanser
I have dry and sensitive skin, and this cleanser has worked very well for me. It is very gentle on the skin and has not caused any irritation. The texture is light and foamy, it spreads easily across the face and rinses off without leaving any residue. After using it, my skin feels clean, soft, and comfortable, without any tightness. The size is quite large, which I find great because it lasts a long time with daily use. Overall, a simple but very pleasant cleanser for sensitive skin.

Miracle cream
Size: 13.5 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I have been having crazy acne due to a severe reaction to salicylic acid, among other things. My face was incredibly inflamed, itchy, sensitive, red and painful. My dermatologist started me on an oral antibiotic and a clindamycin/benzoyl peroxide topical. The topical was still drying me out quite a bit so I got this lotion and it's literally a miracle cream. My skin is hydrated, no itchy or stinging and the redness has gone down so much. It's also helping my open sores to heal more quickly. Yes, it's a combination of all 3 products working together but I can definitely see and feel the cream repairing my skin barrier. I will be starting on accutane after a month of antibiotics and will continue to use this balm to keep me from drying up like a prune.

Works amazing! My eczema is clearing up on my face!
Size: 13.5 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I've been struggling with eczema all of my life and I'm insanely sensitive to all sorts of creams. I've tried just about everything you could find. Colloidal oatmeal ones...to hypo allergenic creams in high end stores. I react to goat's milk and even ones with no fragrance. Well, for the first time ever, I found a cream that seems to be doing the trick. I'm on meds to help with the eczema, but the issue was the eye area, upper forehead [between eyebrows], and right under the nose and around the lips. I'd always get this redness and it didn't matter what creams I used. I recently switched to a Clinique soap [more like a moisturizer that comes out of a bottle] for my face, but it still wasn't getting better. It helped, but the redness wasn't going away! I read online about this cream. I don't use a ton. I put literally a drop under each eye and gently tap it into the area. I also just dab a tiny amount on any other red spot. I'm primarily using this for areas where the redness won't go away. Well, three days after starting this my skin is FINALLY healing around my eyes and in the other zones. My mom even noticed! I can tell you, this is a THICK cream. It's too heavy to slather all over your face. Use it to target areas and use a lighter moisturizer [Aveeno has a sensitive face cream that's new and works]. This cream will help the skin heal [all those annoying patches and redness]. It's worth the money. I suspect it's going to take me ages to finish this bottle off. But, it just is so nice to see my face and not have some sort of weird raccoon look. FYI - I do have some patches on my legs which I glob it on and it's helping that heal too. If you need a good hydrating cream that helps protect the skin and helps it get over that bump where it's irritated, this may work for you. Oh, it has absolutely no scent - none. That was a nice surprise. It's designed for sensitive skin. Initially, I was worried about the cost, but now that my eczema is healing up, it's worth every penny. This worked better than all those steroids and hydrocortisone my docs kept giving me. I was so stressed over the wrinkles under my eyes and for once, it's looking nice. :)
