Notes:
Salvia Rhea Blue is a reliable, long lasting performer with its fragrant violet-blue spikes. The leaves are lanced shaped and a medium to light green color. Bees, butterflies and hummingbirds enjoy visiting the plants dense spikes and deer are most likely to ignore these landscape favorites.
This plant will require occasional maintenance and upkeep, and should be cut back in late fall in preparation for winter. It is a good choice for attracting butterflies and hummingbirds to your yard, but is not particularly attractive to deer who tend to leave it alone in favor of tastier treats. It has no significant negative characteristics.
