Walker’s Low Catmint is a splendid mounding perennial, with gray-green leaves and brilliant violet-blue flowers carried in clusters for weeks and weeks. Growing just a couple of feet tall and wide, it can be in bloom from early summer into fall with a little care, and it adds those wonderful tones of gray and blue that make a garden special and photogenic. Use it spilling out of beds onto paths and paved areas, or on slopes and rocky places. It is perfect for xeric and low-water gardens, and it attracts hummingbirds and butterflies in profusion.
In full sun is the place to grow Walker’s Low Catmint. It thrives in all well-drained soil, from acid to alkaline, and in rocky soils and clays too. It is normally free of pests or diseases, untouched by deer and rabbits and resistant to pollution and salt. Cut to the ground in fall, and trim lightly after the first flush of blooms to encourage more. Very low-maintenance and drought resistant, yet truly beautiful.
