Catnip
250 Seeds
Although best known as an alluring botanical for cats, catnip is a versatile herb with a variety of uses. Over past centuries, catnip has reportedly been used as a cough suppressant, bronchodilator, anti-diarrheal, and anti-colic remedy in humans and is widely used today as both a mosquito and fly repellant. Plants grow 3 to 4 feet tall, producing light green, toothed leaves with a minty scent and terminal flower spikes that are adorned by delicate white and lavender blooms. Flowers are very attractive to bees. In fact, our honeybees spend all day visiting the blooms, which last from mid-summer to fall. Perennial in zones 3-9. Eeach packet contains a minimum of 250 seeds.
