Description
14-16” tall x 31-35” wide. Nepeta Junior Walker™ brings massive bloom power to small spaces and draws hummingbirds and bees to the garden. A hardy, waterwise perennial, Junior Walker™ is sized just right for patio pots and containers. They also perform beautifully in any well-drained soil. Plant them in cottage or butterfly gardens for rustic flair. With small, sage-colored leaves, Junior Walker™ also looks at home in Mediterranean-style plantings. Plants benefit from afternoon shade in hot climates. Water well the first season to establish a strong root system. Plants can tolerate drought once established. A quick snip of spent flowers in early summer will promote new growth and fresh blooms. Cut plants back in late-winter before growth resumes.

Outstanding performance
"I've purchased this plant in spring and it came in very small containers . once it got established it grew three times its size in my border!! I love the way it looks and it attracts pollinators 🐝 the color has last all season long . I will definitely be buying more next spring."
Cute little plant - Will buy more next season
"I planted these in the border of a flower bed. They are a little small but I completely expected that. I am perfectly fine with that as I am gardener who loves to watch them grow. I did not expect any blooms this first year but I have gotten a few. They are holding up well in the heat too. Overall very pleased!"
The best catmint
"I have 3 different varieties of catmint (including a very popular Proven Winners variety), and these are the best. They have been in bloom for SO long. It's early July and I keep waiting for them to lull and they're still gorgeous, weeks after I've cut back my other varieties. They're the perfect size for lining a border. Not too big that they overwhelm the 2nd level behind them, but big enough to spill gracefully over a rock edging. I have about 10 Walker Junior plants lining my driveway in a hot, high desert border, so they get full sun plus the baking hot radiant heat off the concrete. They are on a drip system and seem to be thriving in these tough conditions. They're the perfect color and habit for a soft and romantic cottage garden, and they look wonderful next to yarrow, roses, and veronica. I don't have to worry about them spreading, but they're so great I kind of already want more!"
Hardy and Grows Quickly
"This is a beautiful plant and loved by bees. It grew so fast and got so large quickly!"
I would recommend

"huge bee attractor"
Great plants
"These have flourished. They arrived in spring looking a little bedraggled a few weeks into lockdown but perked up really quickly and within a month or so we're getting bushy, attracting loads of butterflies and looking beautiful."
