This is Nepeta subsessilis Morning Light.

This is Nepeta longipes
(http://img56.photobucket.com/albums/v172/Berghill/July/nepsub.jpg)
And this is the normal form of Nepeta subsessilis.
Unlike lots of Catmints our cats totally ignore these 3.

Now that is a really pretty flower. I would worry that my cat would't let it get that far though! Is it vigerous?

I have a nepeta, but the flowers are tiny!  Will have to see if there is a label stuck in anywhere so I can see which one it is...fat chance...me label anything!  :'(
