Nepeta 'Lemon Purrfection' PPAF CPBRAF
Common Name: Catmint
Growers of this compact catmint will feel like they've struck gold! A tidy plant, 'Lemon Purrfection' is early to bloom, with lavender blue flowers appearing over golden yellow foliage. The brightly colored foliage for which 'Lemon Purrfection' gets its name does not fade through the summer. With increased shade cover the leaf color will be more chartreuse. This selection blooms continuously without being cut back.
Compared with 'Chartreuse on the Loose', this variety is more polished with a denser, more compact habit. Excellent deer and rabbit resistance as a member of the mint family.
When Nepeta's stems are broken, they release an aroma into the air that tends to attract cats, thus its common name, Catmint.
