Maintenance Tips for Nepeta Purrsian Blue

• Soil Requirements: Nepeta Purrsian Blue thrives in well-drained soil with a neutral to slightly alkaline pH level. Ensure proper soil preparation by incorporating organic matter and improving drainage if necessary.
• Sunlight: This catmint performs best in full sun to partial shade. Choose a planting location that receives at least six hours of direct sunlight daily for optimal growth and abundant flowering.
• Watering: Regular watering is necessary during the first growing season to establish a strong root system. Once established, Nepeta Purrsian Blue is relatively drought-tolerant and requires moderate watering. Allow the soil to dry slightly between waterings to prevent overwatering.
• Pruning: After the initial bloom period, shear back the spent flower spikes to encourage reblooming and maintain a tidy appearance. Light pruning in late summer can help promote new growth and extend the flowering season.
• Mulching: Apply a layer of organic mulch around the base of the plant, taking care to avoid direct contact with the stems. Mulching helps retain soil moisture, suppresses weed growth, and insulates the roots.
• Protection: Nepeta Purrsian Blue is generally resistant to pests and diseases. However, regular monitoring is recommended to identify and address any issues promptly. If necessary, consult with a gardening professional for appropriate treatments.
