Lemon Catnip Seeds | Nepeta cataria Aromatic Perennial Herb for Cats
£1.30
Unit price perEstimated Delivery between August 23 and August 25.
Nepeta cataria 'Lemon Catnip' is a fragrant perennial herb with aromatic green foliage carrying a fresh lemon-like scent. This unusual form of catnip combines traditional herbal value with a more delicate citrus fragrance, producing clusters of small white flowers with purple markings that are highly attractive to bees and other pollinating insects.
Easy to grow and hardy in the UK, Lemon Catnip forms a reliable clump that returns year after year. The aromatic leaves can be used for herbal infusions, while the plant is also valued by cat owners because it naturally contains nepetalactone, the compound responsible for the typical catnip response in susceptible cats.
● Fresh lemon-scented aromatic foliage
● Hardy perennial returning year after year
● Attractive nectar source for bees and pollinators
● Traditional herb with culinary and herbal uses
● May stimulate playful behaviour in cats sensitive to catnip
● Herb gardens
● Wildlife-friendly planting
● Cottage gardens
● Cat-friendly gardens
● Sunny borders and containers
● Surface sow seeds and avoid burying deeply, as light improves germination success.
● Cut plants back after the first flush of flowers to encourage fresh foliage and possible repeat flowering.
● Grow in poorer, well-drained soil if you want stronger aromatic foliage rather than excessive leafy growth.
● Divide established clumps every few years in spring or autumn to maintain vigorous plants.
● If growing for cats, harvest and dry leaves after flowering when aromatic oils are well developed; remember that some cats show no response to catnip.
