Salvia

Buy Salvia Plants At Nature Hills Nursery!

Lovely long-blooming Salvia, also known as Perennial Sage, are prolific flowering upright plants that are drought and deer-tolerant members of the Mint Family! 

The Salvia Genus is a large group of plants of nearly 500 species that are native to Mexico and South America. Salvia species include a wide range of annual, biennial, and perennial plants. Many Perennial Salvia plants have fragrant foliage and lend a distinctive but pleasant odor to the garden!

The blossoms are in flowering spires full of two-part lipped petals that are nectar and pollen-rich resources for a wide variety of pollinators! They also look fantastic as vertical texture in the landscape and floral bouquets!

Salvia attracts butterflies and Hummingbirds and is versatile enough to be used in beds, borders, ground covers, planters, and for naturalizing en masse!

Annual or Bedding Salvia are seasonal color in the landscape and mixed container plantings in the sun, but are only perennial or biennial in mild winter climates. In these warmer growing zones, perennial Salvias can act like woody shrubs!

Caring For Salvia Plants

Salvia plants and Perennials bloom best in full sun to partial shade and these Mediterranean plants are xeric and need very well-drained moderately moist soils. Plant Salvia in areas with good air circulation to help prevent mold forming on the foliage.

Once established, Salvia is a very low-maintenance plant! Very pest and disease-resistant, Salvia is also seldom bothered by deer or rabbits due to their aromatic foliage and flowers!

Deadhead your plants as soon as flowers fade and often you'll enjoy a new flush of flowers! If pruning is needed for perennial Sages, do so in the spring. Annual bedding Salvia that is used for seasonal color typically dies back in the cold winters and should be removed in the fall once frost kills the foliage and stems.
