I grow it in my flowerbed and bring in several leaves when I decide to throw a catnip party. Trevor rolls in it and gets all mellow and glassy-eyed. Andy is like a speeded up movie! He gets into a frenzy and attacks it while rubbing it all over his cheeks. The end result is they 'sleep it off!' LOL! I saw the seeds in a local gardening store last year, although my plants came from my sister-in-law several years ago. The nice thing is the plants come back every year.
