Salvia, Back To The Fuchsia
Back to the Fuchsia Salvia sets the summer border ablaze with vivid, richly saturated flower spikes rising upright above tidy green foliage from late spring straight through fall. A butterfly, hummingbird, and beneficial bird magnet, it is one of the most productive perennials in the pollinator garden during its long bloom season. It grows to a clean two to three feet in an upright form that holds its shape without sprawling, and the deep, warm flower color provides a striking contrast against silvery companions like artemisia or catmint. Drought tolerant and deer resistant once established, it prefers lean, well-drained soil and full sun. Deadhead regularly to encourage continuous flowering, and cut it back hard after the first flush to promote fresh bushy growth and a strong second wave of bloom. A vivid, reliable performer for any sunny pollinator border.
