(Catmint) Short-lived herbaceous perennial. Native to Europe. Downy, light green foliage with dense, white-green flowering racemes.
Flowers to 5 feet. Plant prefers full sun and dryish, fast-draining soils. If you ever want to get rid of catnip, just overwater it and it will go away. Or, bruise the leaves a little and the neighborhood cats will probably love it to death.
