Salvia longispicata x farinacea
Low Maintenance, Super Showy and Beautiful Blue Color
‘Big Blue’ shows off with breathtaking clear blue blooms towering above bright green foliage. A generous host to hummingbirds, bees and butterflies. Annual.
Vigorous, robust, heat-tolerant, drought-tolerant; needs no deadheading. Struts its stuff in full sun yet tolerates dappled shade or partial sun. Simple, low maintenance and always a top performer!
Perfect for their back-of-border plantings (It’s gonna get big!), sending out blue spires continuously from July to first frost with little to no extra care.
- Great performer in heat and low-water conditions.
- Low-maintenance plant does not need deadheading.
- Hummingbirds, bees, butterflies and more flock to Big Blue in the garden.
- At its best in full sun, but will tolerate dappled shade or partial sun in the morning.
