Smoldering Color in Sought After Red

Incredibly long blooming, the masses of fiery cherry-red flowers provide smoldering color throughout the compact bushy foliage. An outstanding variety, Salvia Arctic Blaze Red received the ‘Plants of Distinction’ award from University of Georgia Trial Gardens. Salvia are excellent, easy-to-grow perennials for a summer show of intense color. They perform best in full sun and are real heat lovers. Not only do the flowers attract butterflies, but the plants are also very deer resistant. Meadow Sage responds well to shearing after blooming to prompt fresh foliage and blooms.

Salvia Plant Care

Prefers moist but well-drained soil. Can be divided every 3 - 5 years in early spring. After blooming, cut down to basal growth, as new growth will be more appealing. May flop if given too rich soil or excessive shade. Blooms more profusely with regular watering. Dislikes a spot that is damp over the winter.
