Marble Arch Salvia, Heirloom

Renee's Garden - Easy to grow, low maintenance, and both pest and disease-free, these easy-care flowers show off their vibrant flags of color in perfectly matched shades of intense indigo blue, rich rose, and pure white. Blooming hard throughout summer and fall, they strongly attract butterflies. Add to fresh bouquets or air dry for everlasting displays. Enjoy in the summer garden and/or grow in containers for beautiful color. Both deer and rabbits avoid these pretty plants.
