>tfw so much catnip
Damn, this stuff is the most invasive mint I've grown so far. It isn't like peppermint or spearmint where those can lay down & root and do so very readily as a course of action. Catnip blooms with big stalks of flowers that litter thousands of seeds of highly viable all over the place and ALL the seeds sprout into new plants.
One weird thing seems that it is only super invasive in the garden. I took bushes of catnip with tons of seed stalks and shook them all over the property to establish wild patches. However, when I looked for plants in those areas there doesn't seem to be any. I think the super wet summer and local clay soil did them in when they germinated. The local floral is well adapted to this climate and will cover just about anything in just a few days with several feet of growth.
