Catnip Plants

Catnip Plants

Catnip is a popular herb for your feline.  The crushed leaves release neptealactone, a compound known to cause frisky behavior in cats.  Oddly in humans it has a reverse affect, and it calms us down.  The silver gray felted leaves are soft to the touch and borne below the tubular whitish-blue blooms.  Once the plants flower you can cut them back to two inches from the soil and they will send a fresh set of leaves.  Catnip makes a nice container plant inside or outside.
