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

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

This selection has a dense, spreading form that makes it suitable for perennial borders, garden pathways, cottage gardens, rock gardens, and decorative outdoor containers. Its lavender-blue flowers attract bees, butterflies, and other pollinating insects, while its aromatic foliage adds texture and contrast to mixed plantings. Junior Walker™ Catmint is especially useful in sunny landscapes where a compact, long-flowering perennial is desired.

Junior Walker™ Catmint generally performs best in full sun but tolerates partial shade. It prefers well-drained soil and moderate moisture during establishment. Once established, it is relatively drought tolerant. Flowering typically begins in late spring and continues into summer, with additional blooms possible later in the growing season. As a herbaceous perennial, the plant may naturally die back during winter dormancy.
