It flowers over an exceptionally long season, and cutting back after the first flush in midsummer encourages a vigorous second flush of blooms well into autumn. Its mounding, spreading habit makes it ideal for border edging, gravel gardens, and the fronts of sunny beds where it softens hard edges with a relaxed, cottage charm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eOther benefits:\u003c\/b\u003e long flowering season, fragrant foliage, excellent edging plant, drought tolerant, weed suppressing, low maintenance, RHS Award of Garden Merit\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWildlife attraction:\u003c\/b\u003e bees, bumblebees, and butterflies are strongly attracted to the flowers — one of the finest border plants for pollinators\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eHeight \u0026amp; spread (approx.) at 10 years:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.5m x 1m\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePosition:\u003c\/b\u003e full sun; well-drained borders, gravel gardens, and border edges\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSoil pH:\u003c\/b\u003e neutral to alkaline; thrives in well-drained, sandy and chalky soils\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eMoisture:\u003c\/b\u003e low to moderate; drought tolerant once established; good drainage essential\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWinter hardiness:\u003c\/b\u003e fully hardy to approximately -20°C throughout the UK\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Cedar Nursery Herbaceous","offers":[{"title":"2 litre","offer_id":54874812350842,"sku":"836796","price":9.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/www.landscaping.co.uk\/products\/nepeta-x-faassenii-purrsian-blue","provider":"Cedar Nursery - Plants and Outdoor Living","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
