Planting and Application:
Jazz up your outdoor spaces with their charming form and charismatic color. This special Salvia partners beautifully with other sun-garden plants as varied as sophisticated Roses to rustic Daisies and elongated Allium! Salvia fills a hole in the flowering cycle just as Iris and Peony are finishing. Let Back to the Fuchsia shine brightly for you in the late spring and early summer!
These nectar-rich plants make terrific additions to Butterfly and Pollinator Gardens. The blooms will be abuzz with life all day, every day! Cut flower gardens and Cottage borders bring you armloads of showy flowers for bouquets! Snip the flower spires regularly for cut flower arrangements, and you’ll actually encourage additional rebloom!
Use plenty in a dramatic drift or ribbon of bright color near the front of your garden borders. En mass plantings make you look like a pro with their low-maintenance and easy-going nature! Fill large areas in dramatic color and don’t worry about them struggling in the sun or poor soil.
Imagine a formal line of these straight growing bunches growing along your driveway, that hell strip along the roadside, or defining your garden beds! The color of this Salvia is head-turning!

ProPlantTips for Care:
Perennial Sage flowers best in the full sun, with at least sihours of sunlight a day. Give them well-drained soil or keep them in patio pots or raised beds if you need to improve drainage. Provide moderate moisture their first year in the ground, but once established, these herbaceous perennials are very easy, fast-growing, and drought tolerant.
Adding Nature Hills Root Booster during planting provides life-long support, and 3-4 inches of arborist mulch around your plants, especially when planted in harsh conditions to better retain soil moisture and insulate the roots from heat and cold.
So easy to grow and very low maintenance! Deadhead or cut back after flowering to promote reblooming, keeping the blooms returning longer! Cut the entire perennial down in late winter or early spring. Divide every 3-5 years to maintain vigor.
