Details
Nepeta 'Kit Kat' in full bloom is a stunning sight with upright spikes densely packed with intense lavender-blue flowers over neat fragrant green foliage. Flowering almost continuously from May through to September, if you cut back faded flower spikes hard to the ground to encourage fresh growth. Superb for edging a path or raised bed, where it will attract bees and butterflies all summer long. So easy to grow, it prefers a light, free draining soil in either sun or partial shade.

Plant Care
What are you buying?
4L, 2L & 1L refer to pot volume in litres. 9cm, 7cm & 5cm refer to pot diameter. These are common terms used in plant retail to indicate the size of a plant root system. Leaf & stem growth on plants varies widely by variety and time of year. Usually, 1L/2L/4L plants can be anywhere between 20-60cm tall & 5/7/9cm plants will be around 10-30cm tall. However, this may be less if the plant is naturally low growing or if it is a herbaceous plant in winter.
Plug plants are small plants grown from seeds or cuttings in cell trays. Their root systems start from about 1cm and the largest plug plants, described as extra-large or jumbo, are usually around 4cm. Plug plants can be great value to buy but they will need some extra care to get them started. We recommend planting each plug plant into its own 7 or 9cm pot (about the size of a standard mug), NOT directly into open ground or large pots. Ensure the pot has plenty of holes underneath and preferably over two tiers for even better drainage.
