This blog entry is about my Victoria Blue salvia (Salvia farinacea). This salvia is a perennial in my area of the country and makes these beautiful purple/blue spikes of flowers. The plant is mounding and has a nice shape.
I've got a clump of these planted in one of my butterfly beds. They are growing in the midst of some pentas and tithonias. I'm hoping they spread more and more and I can divide them to plant in other areas and share with friends. There are many other types of salvias to grow besides these. I have some salvia leucantha (Mexican bush sage) planted in another place in my yard and I have planted salvia coccinea in years past. Nearly all do well throughout the US, as long as they get full or partial sun.
