Salvia × sylvestris ‘Viola Klose’


Perennial Sage

USDA Zone: 3-9

Plant number: 1.468.440


The Perennial Sages are invaluable perennials for their rich display of spiky flowers in the early summer border. This selection is bushy and compact, with flowers of an exceptionally deep violet-purple shade. Deadhead just below the spend heads to encourage repeat flowering. Excellent for cutting. Drought tolerant once established. Attractive to both butterflies and hummingbirds. Clumps are easily divided in the spring, if desired.
