Nepeta Six Hills Giant - Catmint

Only 3 remaining

Add a graceful sweep of lavender-blue to your garden with Nepeta 'Six Hills Giant', a standout variety of catmint known for its tall, arching stems and masses of fragrant blooms. This hardy perennial creates a cloud of colour from late spring through summer, attracting bees, butterflies, and admiration alike.

With its soft grey-green foliage and elegant, sprawling habit, 'Six Hills Giant' makes a wonderful border plant or groundcover. It's perfect for cottage gardens, pollinator patches, or anywhere you want a burst of beauty with minimal fuss.

Care Instructions:
  • Light: Thrives in full sun but can tolerate light shade. The more sun it gets, the better the flowering.
  • Water: Drought-tolerant once established. Water regularly during the first growing season to help roots settle, then reduce frequency.
  • Soil: Prefers well-draining soil. Avoid overly rich or wet soils, which can cause the plant to flop.
  • Pruning: Shear back after the first flush of flowers to encourage a second bloom. Cut back in autumn or early spring to maintain a tidy form.
  • Fertiliser: Not usually needed. If desired, a light application of compost in spring is sufficient.
Bonus Tip: Though catmint is related to catnip, it’s less likely to drive cats wild – but they may still enjoy lounging nearby!
