Catnip has a well earned reputation for sending cats into states euphoria.  Catnip, a member of the mint family, is a harmless “high” for felines. Although many cats will eat it, scientists say they’re reacting to the smell rather than the taste. Felines bite, chew, rub against, and roll in catnip to release the volatile oil trapped in the leaves. About 80% of adult cats react to this irresistible, intoxicating, analgesic soporific. The tendency to like or ignore catnip is inherited, and it’s true that some cats are immune to its influence.

Excellent ground cover does best in partial to full shade.  Reaching a height of 3-4 inches, this is right at home as a base plant for the shade garden plants or shrubs.  Blue-violet flowers in spring on 4-6″ spikes are a favorite of bees.  Forms a compact, dense mat that prevents weeds from poking through once established.  2-3″ oval shaped leaves form tight rosettes.  Bronze foliage is most vivid in cooler temperatures of spring and fall.  Stays ‘evergreen’ until temps drop below 15 degrees.  Foliage may show more green than bronze in very dense shade or during very hot, humid times.  Spreads by stolons, but is not invasive.
