Serene Lilac Catmint (Nepeta 'Serene Lilac') brings a softer color palette to the classic catmint form, with delicate lilac-hued flowers that create a romantic, cottage garden atmosphere from late spring straight through to frost. This compact perennial forms tidy mounds of aromatic gray-green foliage topped with upright spikes of tubular flowers that beckon every pollinator in the neighborhood. The name fits perfectly as both a color description and a mood setter for what this plant brings to your garden spaces.

A Long Season of Lilac Blooms

Unlike many perennials that offer a brief two-week show, Serene Lilac Catmint delivers months of continuous color. The first flush of lilac flowers appears in late spring and continues strong through early summer. Rather than fading away as temperatures rise, this tough customer keeps producing scattered blooms even during the hottest weeks. Give plants a quick shearing after the initial bloom surge, and they reward you with a robust second flowering period that carries into fall. The individual flowers are small but densely packed along sturdy stems, creating substantial color impact without appearing heavy or overwhelming.

Tough Enough for Challenging Spots

This catmint variety shines in locations where many perennials struggle. Lean, rocky soil suits it perfectly, as does the reflected heat from driveways, patios, and south-facing walls. Once established, plants tolerate considerable drought and bounce back quickly even after wilting during hot afternoons. The aromatic foliage contains compounds that deer and rabbits find distasteful, making Serene Lilac Catmint a smart choice for properties where wildlife browsing is a constant challenge. Cold hardiness to zone 3 means even northern gardeners can count on this perennial returning reliably each spring.

Perfect for Pollinators and Garden Design

Bees work the flowers from dawn to dusk, and butterflies visit throughout the day when temperatures warm. Hummingbirds appreciate the tubular flower shape and often include catmint in their regular patrol routes through the garden. The soft lilac color acts as a versatile bridge in mixed plantings, cooling down hot oranges and yellows while complementing purples, pinks, and blues. The mounding habit and moderate height make this cultivar ideal for edging pathways, softening hardscape edges, or planting in drifts through perennial borders.

Landscape Uses and Companion Plants

Serene Lilac Catmint works beautifully as a border edging where its aromatic foliage can be appreciated up close. Plant it along walkways where brushing against the leaves releases that distinctive minty scent. The compact size suits container growing, either as a solo specimen or combined with upright ornamental grasses and trailing plants. In larger landscapes, mass plantings create sweeps of soft color that tie together more dramatic focal points. This catmint pairs particularly well with roses, where it hides bare lower stems while echoing bloom colors. Other excellent companions include lavender, salvia, coneflowers, and ornamental grasses.

Low Maintenance Perennial Excellence

Gardeners appreciate plants that deliver big results with minimal fussing, and Serene Lilac Catmint fits that description perfectly. No staking required even in rich soil or partial shade. No deadheading necessary for continuous bloom, though shearing after the first flush improves appearance and flower production. Pests and diseases rarely bother well-sited plants. The gray-green foliage looks presentable even when not in bloom, and the plant maintains a tidy shape without constant grooming. For anyone building a low-maintenance landscape that still delivers seasonal color and pollinator support, this catmint belongs on the short list.

Excellent Rivals to Lovers!!
Format: Kindle
The tension and banter between Huntyr and Wold was delectable. I absolutely love the fallen angel and all of his flaws. Huntyr is amazing too being a badass FMC with some major trauma. The world building was great and I enjoyed the training aspect of the story. The writing was immersive and was in the story the whole time. The ending had quite a twist that I hadn’t anticipated and made my jaw DROP. Excellent job! I also loved the narration. Laura is one of my fave narrators!

OUTSTANDING
Format: Kindle
This was very, very good. The world is vast and characters are complex. There is a good plot with a whole lot going on. This is well written. Good twists and turns and some heart breaking moments. You will love these characters, they have heart and loyalty. I am hoping that there will be several more books. We've yet to see anything from the Sea Court but only a mention of them here and there. The Wood Court was given a quick couple of scenes, and only as far as some warriors, we've yet to enter their court and the Shadow Court, I'm not sure if they will be a force for good or bad, but they definitely will play a much bigger role moving forward. This is primarily the Ice and Air Courts. Told in multiple views, which I loved, it gives you a chance to see things from different eyes. There's alot of political maneuvering and deception. I loved it and will pick up the next book as it becomes available. If you like The Fae and the courts, you should love this. I think the author has mucn in store for us.

Definitely worth the read!
Format: Kindle
After taking a deep breath and taking in that wicked twist of an ending, I have finally composed myself. My first thought when I started this book was that I love Reyna's character. I was intrigued by her connection with her familiar and the Ruin that is plaguing her land. It came as no surprise that she took her sister's place in an attempt to protect her. When they reach the Air Court everything slows down. This is where it was iffy for me. First of all, I like multiple POV's in books however 7 is a bit much. It starts to interrupt the story line. I felt like I was finally making progress connecting with one character, then it was switched to another person. I felt they all had necessary or pertinent information but not necessarily were they all POV worthy. The only other thing that annoyed me was that Reyna constantly was " trapped." She would rush off without thinking, only to need rescuing. She is brilliant in a fight, but she really doesn't think through anything. Lorcan is amazing. I know he might be on the "bad" list, but his background is so interesting. Eislyn(Reyna's sister) is really so sweet, but calculating. I enjoyed her and Thane's dialogue. The author did an amazing job with the imagery in this book. Everything was so detailed it was easy to fall into the scene. I love unexpected twists and while part of the ending I expected, I wasn't expecting how it took place. All in all, I found it very entertaining and I am very invested in continuing this series. Favorite quotes: "The truth may be twisted but never false." "Who was she if she was not the enemy of the Air Court? What was her purpose of she no longer has that?" "In a war-torn land, love was always a lie."

Great Read!!! Great story!!!
Format: Kindle
The series is long, but Ms. Wolfhart does a fantastic job of weaving this tale while bringing so much to the characters. Surprises and plot twists along the way to keep you intrigued. There is some graphic sex, but is no way the focal point. Grammar was excellent (a rare find with a lot of self publishers) with only a few noted errors. I rarely give 4 stars, let alone 5.

Sadly, DNF
Format: Kindle
I read this thru KU. I LOVED the synopsis. And then I began reading... and it was a DNF at 68% after picking it up and putting it down several times because I really loved the main female character. *****SPOILERS***** Pros: The world is unique, intriguing and fun. The primary female character is bad-a** but not a b*tech or a mary sue. The primary female has depth. I really want to know what happens to her even tho it's been weeks and I don't remember her name. The villains to the point I read are pretty good -- an ever present threat of mysterious and possibly many culprits. Cons: Way, way too many points of view. I stopped counting at 7. It's the prime reason why I don't care about most of the characters or remember their names even when I like them. There's just too many points of view so almost none of the characters have enough book space for the author to properly develop them. This literally killed the book for me. Actually it killed my desire to read. For weeks. The main male is more villain than hero. He agreed to marry the main female then locks her up & eschews her for her sister, all while bad mouthing her as unfit to rule when he never spent any time with her getting to know her. He is actually unfit to rule as he is blind to the woes of his own kingdom and starts off a peace mission to secure a ceasefire through marriage by murdering an inn full of people in her country for no real reason. Plus, he constantly makes promises he does not keep. And it's gross of him to pine for the sister behind the main female's back. ***** As much as I really wanted to see what happened to the main female character, it wasn't enough for me to keep trying to slog thru this book. There was a lot of potential here that just fell short. Hence, 3 stars.
