Salvia officinalis
This mounding perennial salvia bears fragrant purple flower spikes in summer, a long-blooming, pollinator-rich perennial earning its place through an extended season of colour with minimal care.
- Purple flower spikes are produced in summer and continue reliably through summer; deadhead spent spikes to encourage rebloom.
- Highly attractive to bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds, one of the most pollinator-productive perennials for Ontario gardens.
- Mounding habit, reaching 70 cm at maturity; drought tolerant once established; excellent drainage is essential, avoid waterlogged winter soils.
- Best in full sun with average, dry, well-drained soil.
