Description

Mystic Spires Blue Sage is a compact, free-flowering perennial that delivers an exceptionally long season of intense color. It is covered in tall, dense spikes of rich, deep blue flowers from late spring until frost, blooming non-stop with minimal care. Its dark green foliage provides a perfect backdrop. A favorite of hummingbirds, butterflies, and bees, this easy-care plant is perfect for adding vertical accents to borders, mass plantings, or containers where its prolific bloom and wildlife appeal can be enjoyed.

Non-Stop Deep Blue Blooms: Flowers continuously from spring to fall, with deadheading encouraging even more spikes.
Compact & Floriferous Habit: More compact than 'May Night' salvia, with a heavier, longer-lasting flower display.
Top Pollinator Plant: A magnet for hummingbirds, bees, and butterflies throughout the growing season.
Heat, Drought & Deer Tolerant: Thrives in hot, sunny conditions with minimal water once established and is ignored by deer.
Excellent for Cutting: The long, sturdy flower spikes are perfect for fresh or dried arrangements.

Faqs

Q: Does it need to be cut back?A: Yes, for best performance. After a flush of flowers begins to fade, cut the plant back by about one-third to one-half. This will clean it up and promote a fresh round of growth and flowering. Give it a hard cut back in late winter or early spring.
