The story

Deep violet, then again.

Dense spikes of violet-purple flowers on a bushy clump of aromatic gray-green leaves. Shear it after the first flush and it comes back for a second round.

Light

Full sun. Shade makes it floppy.

Water

Water weekly the first summer. After that it's drought tolerant.

Planting

Plant in spring or early fall in well-drained soil, crown at soil level.

A tough, long-blooming salvia that asks for almost nothing.
