Nepeta 'Cats Pajamas'

When the garden shifts into its summer stride, Nepeta ‘Cat’s Pajamas’ steps in with waves of soft lavender-blue blooms held neatly above the foliage. From late spring into early summer, this compact perennial flowers from the base to the tip, creating a full, polished look that keeps its shape without flopping. With a light trim after the first flush, it reblooms beautifully, extending the season of color.

Unlike traditional catmint, Cat’s Pajamas stays compact and well-structured, with upright flower stems that hold their form. This tidy habit makes it an excellent choice for borders and small spaces where clean lines and reliable performance matter. Heat tolerant, drought tolerant once established, and beloved by pollinators, it delivers long-lasting color with very little fuss.
