Salvia x 'Indigo Spires'


There are so many salvias to choose from but this one has been my favorite for several years. Indigo Spires grows 3-4 feet tall & wide and stays covered in blue flowers. The color tends to deepen thru out the summer. This plant makes an excellent cut flower and also very nice for dried arrangements. The habit is loose and wild which attracts me even more. Looks great planted in mass but give it some room. Sometimes it needs a little support with staking and does best in full sun.
