Salvia spp., commonly known as salvia or sage, is a diverse group of flowering plants valued for their upright spikes of vibrant blooms and aromatic foliage. Flowers commonly appear in shades of red, blue, purple, pink, and white, attracting pollinators throughout the growing season. Its versatile habit makes it a popular choice for garden beds, borders, and containers, especially in sunny landscapes.
Care Needs:
• Light: Full sun
• Water: Water regularly until established; once established, allow soil to dry slightly between waterings
• Pruning: Deadhead spent blooms to encourage continued flowering and trim back as needed to maintain shape
• Fertilizer: Apply a balanced fertilizer every 4–6 weeks during the growing season to promote blooming
