Details

We are so impressed by Salvia 'Lyrical Blues', dare we say it's better than Salvia 'May Night'? We think it has more blooms and a longer blooming season.The long season of deep violet-blue flowers attracts bees and butterflies on bushy, full plants. We believe this variety self-sows, so you may end up with several plantlets if blooms are not removed when spent.

Growing Tips

Clumps may be easily divided in early spring, every 3 to 4 years.
