(Nepeta cataria)

Catnip is a member of the mint family and is super easy to grow.  It is often associated with the effect it has on cats, but it is also can be used medicinally  in humans. It is believed that catnip oil or tea can be used to relieve nervousness and headaches. The leaves can also be candied and enjoyed as desert. Cat’s are very attracted to catnip.
