Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Recently introduced from Ecuador, this is one of the most gorgeous blue Salvias I’ve ever seen. Growing 3’ to 4’ tall and wide, it bears smallish, rich, intense gentian blue flowers well displayed on long, arching, floriferous spikes late Summer through Early Winter. Very attractive, thick, lime-green, deltoid foliage too. Highly recommended!
