Salvia x sylvestris ‘Caradonna’

Description

Salvia nemorosa ‘Caradonna’, commonly known as Caradonna Sage, is a striking perennial known for its tall, spiky stems and vibrant purple flowers. The plant grows 18 to 24 inches tall and has dark purple stems that contrast beautifully with its vibrant, lavender-blue blossoms that bloom in late spring to early summer. The foliage is aromatic, with silvery-green leaves that provide a lovely backdrop to the flowers. Caradonna Sage thrives in full sun and well-drained soil, making it a low-maintenance and drought-tolerant option for garden beds, borders, or containers. It attracts pollinators like bees and butterflies, adding both beauty and ecological value to the garden. The plant also blooms again in late summer if cut back after the first round of flowering, providing extended color in the garden.
