Nursery contributed plant descriptions

It's hard to beat Salvia greggii for effortless garden success and endless color! And I'm loony about this new luscious color – unbelievably intense purple-violet. A mass of good-sized blooms emerge from burgundy calyces from late Spring to Fall and beyond on a not-too-big 30" x 30" bushy form. Stunning in any garden, moist or dry! Well-drained soil with a 1" side-dress of compost in Spring and a trim back in Fall for finest performance. Hummingbird magnetism!
