Nepeta faassenii 'Hill Grounds' - 2026

Nepeta faassenii 'Hill Grounds' is a compact, bushy perennial that forms neat mounds of aromatic, grey-green foliage. In summer, it produces dense spikes of vibrant violet-blue flowers, adding a splash of colour to borders and attracting pollinators such as bees and butterflies. This cultivar is particularly valued for its resilience and low-maintenance nature, making it an excellent choice for a variety of garden settings.

Ideal for sunny, well-drained spots, 'Hill Grounds' is fully hardy and can tolerate dry conditions once established. Its aromatic foliage can help deter deer, and regular deadheading encourages prolonged blooming. The compact growth habit makes it suitable for borders, rockeries, or as a ground cover, providing both aesthetic appeal and ecological value in the garden.
