Catnip

Whether fresh or dried out, catnip is an herb that only cats can smell. If you plant to add this to your garden, realize that catnip is a perennial herb that needs full some with some shade and well-drained soil. Plants can grow to be 18 to 36 inches tall and should be added 12 to 18 inches apart. Additionally, catnip is one herb that can be grown in containers. Keep in an air tight container after harvesting.

Cats will love to roll and play in fresh leaves of catnip. Some cats enjoy eating leaves and they are perfectly safe. Harvest flowering tops and leaves and dry. Once dry keep in airtight containers to preserve freshness.
