Description

Friendship Sage is a bold and beautiful perennial salvia known for its striking color combination. It produces tall spikes of deep violet-purple flowers, but the real show-stopper is the contrasting dark purple, almost black, calyx that holds each bloom. This creates a stunning, two-toned effect that lasts well after the flowers fade. It has a strong, upright habit and blooms tirelessly from spring to fall, making it a dramatic and reliable focal point in borders, cottage gardens, or large containers.

• Stunning Purple & Black Contrast: Deep violet flowers are set against dramatically dark purple-black calyces and stems.

• Tall, Architectural Flower Spikes: Produces numerous upright spikes that add strong vertical lines to the garden.

• Prolific and Long-Blooming: Flowers continuously over a very long season when spent spikes are trimmed.

• Wildlife Haven: A favorite nectar source for hummingbirds, butterflies, and bees.

• Easy and Adaptable: Tolerates heat, drought, and poor soil with ease once established.
