watering
Nepeta 'Psfike' Little Trudy is a hardy, easy-care plant that prefers regular watering. To keep this species of plant healthy, it should be watered 1-2 times per week; more often in summer if the soil dries out quickly. Allow the top inch of soil to dry out between waterings, and check the soil with your finger to ensure it is not still wet. Over-watering can lead to root rot, so it is important to gauge how dry the soil is to provide the proper amount of water.
sunlight
Nepeta 'Psfike' Little Trudy is a low-maintenance plant that prefers full sun. A minimum of 6-8 hours of direct sunlight is ideal for optimal health and flowering. To maintain health and vigor, place the plant in an area that receives direct sunlight for at least 6 hours in the morning and later in the afternoon. During the hottest part of the day, partial shade is beneficial.
pruning
Nepeta 'Psfike' Little Trudy is an adaptable and vigorous semi-evergreen perennial that is easy to care for. Pruning can help to keep the plant in good shape and promote blooming. Pruning should be done twice a year, once in the spring and once in early summer. In the spring, prune your Little Trudy to shape it and remove any dead or damaged stems. To achieve a fuller, bushier plant, pinch back the stems by a few inches after the flowers have withered. In early summer, trim back the last year's stems to prevent the plant from becoming leggy. If the stems are left unpruned, they may become woody and the plant may not bloom as much.
