A new introduction, Perovskia ‘Bluesette’ has been bred specifically to be bushier and more compact, so perfect for planting singly in smaller gardens, in swathes if you have the room, or in containers for a patio or balcony. Commonly known as Russian Sage and prized for its silvery-green foliage, the striking lavender-blue flowers are held throughout summer and into early autumn. The delicate, airy flower spikes create a soft, cloud-like effect, attracting bees, butterflies, and other pollinators. The finely textured, aromatic foliage adds year-round interest, releasing a pleasant scent when brushed against. Thriving in full sun and well-drained soil, ‘Bluesette’ is drought-tolerant and low-maintenance, making it perfect for water-wise gardens. Its resilience against heat, poor soil, and deer resistance further enhances its appeal. This dwarf Russian Sage variety is an excellent choice for adding movement, texture, and long-lasting colour to the landscape. Whether planted ‘en masse’ or as an accent, Perovskia ‘Bluesette’ brings a touch of elegance and effortless beauty to any outdoor space.
