Salvia

Perennial salvias are mainstays of the midsummer garden border, blooming summer to autumn! Planted in the spring, these aromatic beauties are great for cutting and beloved by bees and butterflies, plus, they’re drought-tolerant. Salvias appear as a colourful spike of densely-packed flowers with tubular blossoms atop square stems and velvety leaves. Hummingbirds and butterflies love salvias’ tubular flowers and they’re adored by bees, too, so plant them if you wish to attract these pretty pollinators!
