Nepeta cataria Features: -Perennial -Recommended for outdoor growing in a container or in the ground, or indoor growing with plenty of light -Comes in a biodegradable pot We grow our plants from seed, start them indoors, and move them outside to the shade to acclimate to the weather. To transplant, dig a hole a bit larger than the biodegradable pot, tear the pot in a few places, and bury the the root ball (including the pot) in the hole. You may also choose to add a bit of compost or worm castings into the hole before adding the plant. Water in thoroughly. (If growing indoors, remove the plant from the biodegradable pot and plant in a good potting mix for container gardens or houseplants.) Variety description from Southern Exposure Seed Exchange: "Use this mint for teas, or for amusing your cat. (Note that only about 2 out of 3 cats are amused!)"
