Rare To Find Salvia pachyphylla Rose Mojave Sage, flame purple flowers aromatic foliage Plant Φυτό
DESCRIPTION
Extraordinarily showy, Salvia pachyphylla (Rose Sage) is a long-lived evergreen shrub, producing slightly cupped, silvery gray, aromatic leaves on square stems and spectacular bluish/purple flower spikes all summer long. Larger than most other sages, the intensely colored inflorescences of tubular blue flowers extend beyond the rosy pink bracts, while their long stamen add further elegance to the display. A favorite of bees, hummingbirds, and butterflies, this Salvia is a gardener's dream: it requires little water, little maintenance, is heat and cold hardy, and produces eye-catching flowers over a very long season. Recommended for xeriscaping.
Beautiful, intensely aromatic silvery-green foliage, topped with densely whorled bracts of lovely smoky mauve-purple that surround delicate violet-blue flowers. Blooms all summer, continuing into the fall. This sub-shrub perennial is native to the higher altitude of the California hills and prefers a full sun location, with good drainage being essential. Requires a dryer winter soil. Very heat tolerant, and perfect for a xeric garden. Grows 18-20" tall and 24-30" wide. Zones 5-10. Drought, rabbit, and deer resistant. Attracts hummingbirds, butterflies, and bees. Full sun.
