Salvia nemorosa Caradonna

Caradonna Sage

A perennial sage variety highly prized for its elegant flower spikes and aromatic foliage. Its deep purple flowers appear in early summer and last until fall, forming long flower stems that contrast nicely with the grayish-green foliage. This sage has an upright, compact habit, making it ideal for borders or clumps. It is relatively drought-resistant once established. For maintenance, light pruning in early winter or early spring helps stimulate vigorous new growth and maintain a compact shape. This sage is particularly suited to dry gardens and pollinator gardens.
