Description

Salvia Macro Shallow DOF. Close up with shallow depth of field of the end of a Salvia flowering plant. Artistic non-manipulated image.

The salvia flowers we find so often in the landscape are part of a large genus (Salvia) of plants in the mint family, including the herb used in cooking known as "sage." May Night salvia was named the 1997 Perennial Plant of the Year™ by the Perennial Plant Association. The organization makes a selection each year (in 2017, the honor goes to Asclepias tuberosa) based on the plants' having the following traits:

"Suitable for a wide range of growing climates"
"Require low maintenance"
"Have multiple-season interest"
"Are relatively pest/disease-free"

This long-blooming perennial plant bears small, purplish-blue flowers on spikes and reaches 18-24 inches in height, with a similar spread. The lance-shaped leaves, many feel, add to the vigorous appearance of the plant.

If you remove the spent blooms, May Night salvia plants will flower all summer long. Such long-blooming perennials are a joy to grow for gardeners who care about sequence of bloom.
