Junior Walker™ Catmint 1 Live Perennial Plant, 1 Gallon Pot – Nepeta × faassenii ‘Novanepjun’

Junior Walker™ Catmint (Nepeta × faassenii ‘Novanepjun’) is a compact herbaceous perennial valued for its abundant lavender-blue flowers, aromatic gray-green foliage, and naturally mounding growth habit. This ornamental catmint produces numerous small, tubular blossoms arranged along upright flower spikes, creating a soft display of color above its finely textured leaves.

Junior Walker™ is a compact selection with a dense, spreading habit that makes it particularly suitable for perennial borders, pathway edges, cottage gardens, rock gardens, and decorative containers. Its flowers attract bees, butterflies, and other pollinating insects. The aromatic foliage adds texture to garden combinations, while the lavender-blue blooms complement roses, ornamental grasses, and other flowering perennials.

This catmint generally performs best in full sun, although it can tolerate partial shade. It prefers well-drained soil and is relatively drought tolerant once established. In suitable growing conditions, it flowers from late spring into summer, with additional flowering possible later in the season. As a herbaceous perennial, its aboveground growth may naturally decline or die back during winter dormancy.
