Catnip is easy to grow. It produces lots of tiny flowers.
If you cut the flowering tips it will keep blooming all season.
It is very invasive and will take over beds if not held in check.
My kitty loves it. She would lounge around in the bed like a doofus.
Here is a bed I put in this past summer....

I'm growing my catnip in a turned up cookie container from the local grocery store bakery. Filled the container about a 1/2" from the top with soil and perlite mix. and sprinked a few seeds over it dry. tossed a little sphagum moss over the top of the seeds to light ly cover and poured about 1 cup of water in it. grown under 2 CFL's (26w) in my white open face bookshelf. after about 4-6 days you should ave a few 'lings showin' their bright green faces. water about twice a week. they do good in light, well darined soil.

Ye i never got my Catnip to flower last summer
but bugs sure dont like to eat it becuase you have to rub the leaves to relese the smell !
You can get catnip seeds at like Canadian Tire as far as that goes
or Home Depot

This is my first year gardening & I decided to try growing Catnip for my cat. Here's some pics.

PetSmart sometime sells catnip already grown in little pots. They also sell cat grass which is actually wheat grass, grows in nice ornamental clumps of you plant it outside.

Walmart sells catnip seeds, when they put their seed racks out in January check for it there.
