Salvia nemorosa (Garden Sage)
×
Color Name: Perfect Profusion
This Salvia nemorosa hybrid reblooms multiple times throughout the summer if the spent flower stems are cut back. Perfect Profusion is one of the very best salvias for consistent rebloom! Soft icy blue flowers cover the perfectly rounded plant. The sheer density of flower stems will certainly catch your eye as you walk past!
Salvia is a staple item for every sunny garden. It asks little more than sunshine and a little drink every once in a while in return for producing a bountiful mass of colorful flower spires from late spring into early summer. It forms an upright clump of aromatic, rugose green foliage that looks nice all season long and is not enjoyed by rabbits or deer.
Growing Tips: Salvia is easy to grow in almost any climate. Though it is drought tolerant, it will bloom better with regular watering. Deadheading encourages a longer bloom time. If plants get leggy during the season, cut them all the way back to the newly developed foliage. If cut back, plants may rebloom in fall but often the flowers are fewer and smaller.
