5 Cat Approved

This catnip took over a large section of our garden. Our cats absolutely love it fresh. They eat it from our hands. We will be using our dehydrator to make dried catnip! It did well in our New England weather.
Happy kitties this plant will make.

Healthy Catnips

Sturdy catnip plants resulted from following the instructions, although the germination rate was a little low. I soaked the seeds for 24 hours before sowing them as per the label instructions. One plant I placed outside, in a container, before autumn ended. The plant has remained healthy all winter (zone 7b), with minimal watering. Tough plant, I'm impressed.
