Growing 100 Cat Mints
I’ve ordered 100 Cat Mint (Nepeta Faassenii Walkers Low) rooted plugs to be grown out in 6” pots. A cattle panel greenhouse cover may get installed over this in the Fall — we’ll see if it’s needed.
Cat Mint is deer-resistant, produces a profusion of long-blooming bluish-purple flowers, and can tolerate rocky and clay soils. It will top out at 2-3 feet tall and wide, and should do great as an accent understory in the sunny orchard.
