Magenta pink flowers from plum calyces and dark stems mass above the small, deep green leaves. This fast growing, long flowering, upright plant is adored by pollinators. It has a rounded habit and sturdy stems. Low maintenance and compact enough to grow in a container.

Salvias have so much to offer gardeners and there is an impressive array to choose from. What distinguishes Salvia ‘Salmia Dark Purple’ is its upright form and unusual colouring.

It is a strong performer in both gardens and pots and bees and other beneficial insects will flock to it.

Grow in a sunny location in well drained soil. These Salvias are dry tolerant once established and look wonderful in beds, borders or dry gardens. They have a vigorous growth and are easy care, with solid heat tolerance and frost resistance. Remove spent flowers to encourage even more blooms over the growing period.
