Extra Info:

Used in traditional medicine in Europe for centuries, and first mentioned in the poetic 11th century herbal, De viribus herbarum, catnip was prized for its ability to calm occasional nervousness and promote restful sleep. Catnip was also part of American folk medicine and Native American healing systems and employed as a gentle tea for children in cases of occasional upset stomach or sleeplessness. In the southwestern United States, catnip or 'nebada' amongst the Spanish speakers, was utilized in traditional folk medicine to allay a range of digestive challenges. It was considered particularly useful for soothing the stomach and enhancing digestion in infants.

This is the good stuff! I use this catnip to make cat toys, just a simple cloth tube stuffed with catnip and sewn shut. As I write this, my cat is sitting next to me assiduously licking one of the toys I made with this catnip.
