Salvia - Mystic Spires

An almost never-ending display of velvety purple flower spikes makes Salvia ‘Mystic Spires’ a big-bang-for-the-buck sage for sunny gardens. From late spring through fall, upright 14" spikes reach skyward above handsome, heart-shaped green leaves that clothe the stems all the way to the base. Also known as Mystic Spires Sage, this long-blooming salvia grows into a useful, bushy plant about 4' tall and 30" wide, fitting politely between neighbors while adding strong vertical color to the middle or back of the border. It is gorgeous in cottage gardens, pollinator beds, large containers, and mixed perennial plantings, where its rich purple blooms attract bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds in abundance. Plant Salvia ‘Mystic Spires’ in full sun with rich, composty, well-drained soil for the most gorgeous growth and bloom. Cut back to about 8" tall in winter to refresh the plant for the next season. Colorful, reliable, and wonderfully floriferous, it belongs in every salvia lover’s garden. Explore more favorites in our Salvia - Sage collection.
