054-021     Nepeta racemosa 'Little Titch'       
Sun     Zones 3-8 Lavender Blue flowers
Truly the most compact and smallest catmint we have grown. This very low mounding form does not flop like some of the taller species. As a consequence of its compact nature, its racemes are shorter and more congested but individual florets are similar in size to those of N. 'Walkers Low' and N. cataria. The foliage is frosted blue green, very deeply veined and retains its aromatic qualities.  Summer to autumn. bloom   6-10 in. x 12 in.
