Delivering a spectacular summer display, Salvia 'Sensation Compact Deep Blue' produces dense, upright spikes of intensely rich, deep blue flowers. This stunning salvia creates a vibrant, long-lasting splash of colour from early to late summer.
Living up to its name, it boasts a wonderfully compact, branching habit that reaches just 30cm in height. This incredibly neat, dwarf form makes it an absolutely perfect choice for edging a sunny border, rockeries, or growing in patio containers.
It is highly prized for its aromatic, greyish-green foliage that releases a lovely scent when brushed. The neatly textured leaves provide an excellent, lush groundcover that perfectly contrasts the vivid violet-blue floral wands.
Thriving in a bright and sunny spot, it is a fully hardy, drought-tolerant perennial that requires very little maintenance. Simply plant it in moist but well-drained soil and deadhead the spent blooms regularly to encourage a superb second flush of colour later in the season.
Blooming profusely throughout the warmest months, it acts as a fantastic magnet for bees, butterflies, and other pollinating insects. Adding this incredibly floriferous plant to your garden guarantees a constant, lively buzz of beneficial wildlife.
