Catnip is an easy to grow, perennial herb. Plant in full sun, in ordinary garden soil. It can tolerate poor soil, but will grow more full if the soil is amended. Catnip will grow to 36 inches tall and makes a nice garden plant. Catnip will also grow well in a large container. We recommend using Gardener and Bloom organic potting soil or Fox Farm Ocean Forest potting soil.
1 quart containers: Space plants about 18 inches apart in the garden.

Harvest leaves of catnip and give to kitties as a treat, they really love to eat the fresh leaves. Catnip also makes a relaxing tea for humans. The flowers as well as the leaves can be dried and stored in an airtight container. Protect young plants from curious cats until plants grow enough to withstand some grazing.
