Salvia

Salvias are the effortless stars of summer into autumn—upright spires that shimmer in the breeze, aromatic foliage that releases scent at a touch, and a constant hum of grateful bees and butterflies. Whether you favour rich royal purples, inky blues, lipstick reds or soft pastels, there’s a salvia to weave colour and movement through borders, pots and patio displays.

Tough yet elegant, salvias thrive in sun and free-draining soil, coping well with dry spells once established. They flower for months with minimal fuss: simply deadhead to keep the show rolling, and cut back in early spring to refresh tidy mounds of growth. From compact, edging forms to taller statements, they’re superb partners for grasses, roses and late perennials, bringing that coveted “repeat-blooming” rhythm to the garden.

Browse our collection to find your perfect match—plant in bold groups for impact or mix through containers for long, pollinator-friendly colour that asks for little and gives back generously all season.
