Gorgeous All Summer and Unbowed by Heat and Drought

Glowing like a blue flame in the summer sun, this perennial is truly the cat's meow! Great news for arid gardens, Nepeta was built to endure summer's worst tendencies. No matter what the season throws at Nepeta 'Cat's Pajamas'—extreme heat or drought—this sun-loving classic stays colorfast and lovely all summer long. This variety looks gorgeous planted in mass, tucked in borders, and bursting out of containers.

As if its beauty and vigor weren't enough of a draw, Nepeta 'Cat's Pajamas' is attractive not only to appreciative horticulturalists but to every manner of bee, butterfly and hummingbird as well. The green foliage releases a scent that we find pleasant but that deer despise so you don't have to worry about it being nibbled by these common pests. Nepeta 'Cat's Pajamas' is easy to grow, easier to love, and a must have for just about any avid gardener.

Deer proof

I love these plants. Bought them several years ago. They are not invasive at all. But the plant just gets wider and wider. Deer do not eat them. They will bloom a long time if you keep them deadheaded.
