Little Trudy Catmint
Little Trudy catmint is a short perennial flower. It is the most compact of the catmints available, which makes it ideal for the front of the garden beds.
The silvery serrated foliage has a pleasant aroma, and the spikes of tubular lavender flowers are long-lasting. The flowers will be more abundant if grown in full sun. Bees are attracted to the flowers.
This cultivar is sterile, so it will not spread by seed like some of the older cultivars of catmint.
