Catnip Seeds for Cats and Herbal Tea offer a ready-to-grow plant that cats can enjoy and people can use in calming teas. These seeds are for the 2026 growing season. To sow, we recommend using 12 Cavity Greenhouse, Soil Pods, and Liquid Fertilizer. Catnip can be tricky to germinate, so apply seed stratification: place seeds in the freezer for 24 hours, then soak in water for 24 hours before planting. The herb can be used in calming teas or enjoyed by your cat. For ongoing growth, you can prune the plant by cutting a few inches from the base to encourage regrowth. Find more germination details in our seed guide.

Plant specifics include a bushy mint-like appearance, with plants reaching 12-36 inches tall and 1-3 inch leaves. Germination takes 5-10 days, at a depth of 1/2 inch, with spacing of 15 inches between thin seedlings. Start in a 4-12 inch planter, box, or garden bed. Time to maturity is about 85 days. Seed prep options are pre-soak, scarification, stratification, or none. The recommended method is greenhouse or the paper towel method, with temperatures above 60F. As the plant matures, you can cut a few inches from the base to promote regrowth.
