Alluring and aromatic, the open-mouthed blooms in rich, sumptuous shades will give your garden the feeling of opulence. Plant near a path or seat where you can sit back and enjoy the sage-like scent when the foliage is brushed against, while watching our pollinating friends busy themselves collecting a nectar-rich feast. The ‘Velveteen Salvia Collection’ comprises; microphylla ‘Dyson’s Maroon’ - rich, dark plummy maroon blooms with almost blue calyces from June to first frosts, herbaceous, height 80cm, spread 60cm; microphylla ‘Wine and Roses’ –rich red and pink flowers, the lower lip fades as it matures giving many shades on the plant at the same time over evergreen foliage, height and spread 75-80cm; and ‘Pink Mulberry’ - a new hybrid, white-tipped blooms with fuzzy, deep pink hoods from June to October, height 1m, spread 65cm, deciduous. Perfect for both borders and containers, plant the ‘Velveteen Salvia Collection’ into well-drained soil, in a south or west facing aspect, in sun or partial shade. Hardy and half-hardy perennials, so protection may be required during the coldest winter weather. Like all salvias they are valued for their long flowering period, vivid colouring, and pollinator-friendly nectar-rich blooms.
