A sweet variation on classic lavender-blooming catmints, 'Pink Pixie' features pastel-pink blooms that contrast with the blue-grey foliage, and a slightly more compact and tidier habit than other catmints. Reaching only 6-9 in tall by 12-16 in wide, it's as hardy and drought-tolerant as traditional Nepetas, and just as long blooming -- just shear back flowers regularly to inspire a fresh flush of blooms. The fragrance that is appealing to us deters the deer and bunnies, while the ongoing blooms are great for supporting bees, butterflies, hummingbirds and beneficial insects.
Best in full sun and tolerates most soils. Pairs with other native and water-wise sun-loving perennials and ornamental grasses, such as Achillea, Pennisetum 'Burgundy Bunny', Miscanthus 'Little Miss', and Penstemons.
