Organically grown perennial plant. We do not use herbicides or pesticides on our plants which makes them ideal for animal sensory gardens, and wildlife gardens.
This animal friendly plant is a great addition to a garden herb area though may be best kept in a movable pot as cats may chew and roll on the plant.
We specialise in growing plants for self-selection by animals (zoopharmacognosy) whereby your companion animal makes use of the plant's medicinal properties for their health and well-being. Some benefits may include:
* stomach calming properties when ingested
* mild sedative effect which may be beneficial for stress and nervousness.
Catnip can induce a euphoric state in around 70% of cats. The leaves can be picked off and offered, or can be dried to produce the traditional catnip product. NOTE - we always recommend further investigation to ensure there are no contraindications with any medication or conditions your animal may have, as well as offering alongside other choices, and noting this does not replace appropriate veterinary care.
This plant enjoys a sunny position, and is best kept moist. Produces white flowers through the summer. Can be kept indoors, but is hardy enough to survive the winter outdoors, though will die back over winter.
