Salvia nemorosa (Garden Sage)
×
Color Name: Swifty White
White flower spikes adorn this compact variety of Salvia. Dense spikes of white flowers are produced in early summer and will continue longer if deadheaded.
This is a clump forming plant with oblong leaves which are aromatic when crushed. Use it in containers, beds, and borders.
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.
