#ProPlantTips For Care
Full sun is a requirement for these vibrant flowering perennials. Six hours of direct sunlight is a minimum. In the very hottest areas, you could try them with a bit of afternoon shade. Otherwise, more sun means more color.
Easy to grow plants, these hardy Perennial Sages have average to low water requirements, you'll not need to worry about the summer heat, but bloom best with regular watering. All pants appreciate a 3- inch layer of mulch. Growing in almost any climate in zones 3-8, these Salvia are wonderfully easy to grow!
Salt and drought tolerant and adaptable to nearly all organically rich, any well-drained soil is perfect for these easy-to-grow plants. Deadhead as flowers fade to encourage a rebloom, often flowering until frost! In early spring, prune back the clump before new growth emerges. Divide clumps every 3-5 years to maintain vigor.
