Junior Walker Catmint

Junior Walker Catmint (Nepeta x faassenii 'Novanepjun') Junior Walker Catmint (Nepeta x faassenii 'Novanepjun') is a compact, sun-loving perennial grown for its aromatic gray-green foliage and its long season of lavender-blue flowers that bring reliable color to borders without the sprawl of larger catmints. It forms a tidy, mounding clump that stays lower and more controlled than classic selections, making it easier to use at the front of beds, along paths, and in smaller landscape spaces. Bloom begins in late spring and often continues through summer, especially when the plant is trimmed after the first heavy flush. With its neat habit and repeat flowering, Junior Walker Catmint makes an excellent focal point when you want a clean ribbon of blue that looks intentional all season. Distinctive Features The standout feature is the compact, well-behaved growth, which helps borders stay crisp while still delivering the soft, airy bloom effect catmint is known for. Leaves are lightly fuzzy, aromatic, and gray-green, adding a calm, silvery tone that pairs easily with nearly any palette. Flower spikes are lavender-blue and highly attractive to pollinators, keeping beds active through the bloom window. Junior Walker performs best in well-drained soil and typically looks its best when sheared back after the first flush to refresh foliage and encourage repeat flowering. Growing Conditions...
