Salvia x (Salvia 'Mystic Spires')
$ 13.98
Salvia 'Mystic Spires' is a showstopper when in bloom. Its long spikes of blue flowers are eye-catching and attractive to butterflies, bees, and hummingbirds. As the case with most salvias, it needs well-draining soil with plenty of organic material. 'Mystic Spires' does best when protected from afternoon sun in the summer, preferably in a spot where the soil will not be dry for extended periods.
