Cats are attracted by its aroma so its oils are used in cats' toys. But this is not the real Catnip which botanical name is Nepeta cataria. This fragrance is also a mosquito and cockroach repellent.
Perennial, groundcover up to 30cm with clustered blue flowers in summer. Green-greyish and aromatic leaves.
It grows on sandy soils from fresh to humid ones.
