Nursery contributed plant descriptions
Smaller salvia for the rock garden. Foliag is some of the very best, forming a low mass of silver felt, flowers arrive on many short (6-8inches) stems and area wonderful purple-blue that complements the silver foliage perfectly. A very, very beautiful salvia that only asks for sun and good drainage. Zone 5. - Joseph
