1. Lemon Mint

Though not a member of the mint family, this plant has a distinct herbal scent that has hints of citrus. Because its leaves contain citronellol, the essential oil distilled from this plant has a repellent effect on insects. The lavender flowers are a favorite of butterflies and hummingbirds.

4. Cat’s Meow
Click to display
Truly the “cat’s meow”, the best Nepeta we’ve seen yet! Unlike most Nepetas that have a bit of a wild, unkempt look, this first class selection keeps its tidy, dense, rounded shape all season long.

Its small, grey-green, aromatic leaves are topped with well-branched stems carrying spikes of sky blue flowers with purple calyxes from early summer into early fall.

‘Cat’s Meow’ has everything today’s gardeners are looking for: a low maintenance, drought tolerant, deer resistant, long blooming perennial that looks great all season.

Click to display
Summer Magic is a new, extremely free-flowering grandiflora variety from the UK that blooms continuously from May to September. Grass green leaves and a great deep lavender flower color make for a great garden combination. This new catmint is compact and sturdy and never flops, even in the worst rain storms. You won't attract cats with this selection either. Compared to ‘Walker's Low’ and ‘Six Hills Giant’, Summer Magic has a much sturdier habit and never goes through that ugly mid summer phase. Awards: Shortlisted for the New Plant Award at RHS Chelsea Flower Show 2013.

Exciting and versatile, 4 Luck Coco Mint is an excellent component plant for containers with a great amount of diversity in colors. It grows low and spreads, then with maturity cascades over the edge of containers and baskets. It performs as an excellent groundcover because the stems will develop from the plant base under the soil, filling a small area in a single growing season. With that stated, trifolium is not categorized as an invasive plant.
