Love it, have a smaller variety, used to put a hanging basket over it to stop the cats sitting in it....works a treat, the stems row up through the basket, and stop it flopping.

What a fab idea Angela!

Derek a path edged with nepeta is gorgeous but doubt I'd have much success either.
That's exactly how this is growing DD2, or else I'd have no plant. There is an earlier picture of one of my cats trying to hug the basket!
I've done this for a few years now and it does stop it flopping over too.

I used to like Nepeta, stopped growing it eventually, it attracted EVERY cat in the area, and never got a chance to give the display it's capable of giving to the edge of a path, Derek.
