Cat's Meow Catmint (Nepeta faassenii 'Cat's Meow')

Cat's Meow Catmint (Nepeta faassenii 'Cat's Meow') is a sun-loving perennial grown for its tidy, upright habit and its long season of lavender-blue flowers that bring reliable color to borders and foundation plantings. It blooms heavily from late spring into summer, and with a quick trim after the first flush, it often reblooms and keeps the garden looking fresh well into the warm season. Compared with older catmint types that can sprawl or flop, Cat's Meow stays more vertical and compact, making it easier to design with and easier to keep looking clean. With its steady bloom, aromatic foliage, and strong garden structure, Cat's Meow Catmint makes an excellent focal point along paths and at the front of beds where consistent color matters.

Distinctive Features

The standout feature is the upright, non-flopping habit, which keeps flower spikes held neatly above the foliage and maintains a finished look without constant staking or correction. Leaves are gray-green, lightly fuzzy, and aromatic, adding soft texture even when the plant is between bloom cycles. The flower color is a clear lavender-blue that pairs easily with warm-toned perennials and contrasts beautifully with yellow, white, and pink blooms. It is also a dependable pollinator plant, drawing bees and other beneficial insects throughout its bloom period.

Growing Conditions

  • Sun: Full sun is best; tolerates light shade but may flower less.
  • Soil: Well-drained soil; performs best in average to lean soils and does not like wet feet.
  • Water: Moderate; water regularly during establishment, then water during extended dry spells.
  • USDA Hardiness Zones: 3 to 8.
  • Habit: Compact, upright perennial with dense flower spikes.
  • Mature Size: About 16 to 20 inches tall and 18 to 24 inches wide.

Ideal Uses

  • Focal Point: Use as a reliable blue accent where its upright habit keeps beds looking neat and intentional.
  • Border Edging: Creates a clean, repeatable line along walks, patios, and perennial borders.
  • Foundation Planting: Adds long-blooming color and soft texture without looking messy or overgrown.
  • Pollinator Plantings: Supports bees and beneficial insects during a long flowering season.
  • Companion Planting: Pairs well with roses, salvias, echinacea, rudbeckia, and ornamental grasses for a balanced, colorful look.

Low Maintenance Care

  • Watering: Water consistently the first season; after that, water during prolonged drought.
  • Shearing: Trim back after the first heavy bloom to encourage fresh growth and rebloom.
  • Soil Management: Avoid overly rich or constantly wet soils, which can reduce performance.
  • Fertilizing: Usually not needed; a light spring feeding is enough in poor soils.
  • Spacing: Provide airflow to help foliage stay clean in humid weather.
  • Dividing: Divide every few years if clumps become woody or less vigorous.

Why Choose Cat's Meow Catmint?

  • Non-Flopping Habit: Upright growth keeps flower spikes neat and maintains a clean border edge.
  • Long Bloom Season: Heavy late spring bloom with strong potential for repeat flowering after shearing.
  • Aromatic Foliage: Soft, gray-green leaves add texture and a polished look between bloom cycles.
  • Pollinator Support: Flowers attract bees and other beneficial insects through the season.
  • Strong Focal Point Value: Delivers dependable blue color and tidy structure where the eye naturally lands.

If you want a catmint that stays neat, blooms for a long season, and supports pollinators, Cat's Meow Catmint adds focal point color and reliable structure in sunny, well-drained beds.

A must read for public executives
Format: Paperback
Concise, focused, and full of real-world point and counterpoints, I found this to be more of an essential piece of oratory combat equipment than a book. As a non-lawyer working in public service, this book provides excellent points on interpretation, form versus substance, and the importance of observation and evidence – all skills needed to protect the public interest. As someone who monitors contracts in the public sector, many of my peers could benefit from this book and better design contracts to the advantage of their public entity. Incidentally, I was also involved in a heated discussion about data interpretation the same week I was reading this book, and was able to calmly defend and dominate the discussion until my opponent acquiesced. More important than dominating your opponent is the theme throughout this book that one’s argument must be genuine, and the logic tight. Additionally, as Prof. Trachtman reminds readers that these skills, like a weapon, should only be used for good. A great read!

Simply Wonderful
Format: Hardcover
I Love America is a wonderful book to help children (along with the rest of us!) recognize and appreciate the blessings bestowed upon us by God, including our freedoms in all their forms, our remarkable veterans, and those that work so hard to make our nation what it is. The fun rhyming and adorable illustrations kept our boys glued to it the whole time. Highly, highly recommended.
