This selection, part of the Whispurr™ Series, features small lavender-blue flowers that are densely clustered to form large plumes, blooming from May to September. Very popular with pollinators. The leaves are highly aromatic when crushed or bruised so an excellent addition planted along a garden path. Shear back the initial flower spikes for continuous bloom. Attractive to our feline friends.
