15.Catmint

Catmint is a cultivar garden plant Nepeta x faassenii, which is not confused with catnip (though it's a simple mistake to make). Despite its resemblance to catnip, this perennial will not attract all local cats looking for a good time.

The plant has silvery-grey leaves that are attractively lobed and veined, as well as delicate purple blooms. If the plant's dead buds are plucked off, it will continue to bloom throughout the season, providing months of lovely color.
