Look at this nice and healthy catnip plant! It wasn't always so.
So here I, and I am sure the plant as well, expected the cats lovingly nuzzling the leaves. But this is not what happened.
Catnip (Nepeta cataria) is not Catmint. It's especially the catnip plant some cats love so very much. Munching on the leaves can give them a euphoric high. It's Nepetalactone, the stuff in catnip, cats go crazy over.
After Bob almost killed the three plants, I planted what was left in the pots outside and weed as it is, it grows like crazy (weed, get it? hahaha) And catnip supposedly repels mosquitoes but its white flowers attract bees and butterflies. A win-win for the garden.
Das ist doch toll wenn man die katzlein glücklich machen kann
