Salvia Black & Bloom Plant in 1L Pot – Perennial with Deep Blue Flowers

Stunning Deep Blue Salvia for Borders and Containers

Salvia Black & Bloom is an award-winning perennial that delivers striking contrast with its deep blue blooms and jet-black stems. This upgraded variety of the classic Black and Blue Salvia produces larger flowers, earlier blooms, and thicker foliage, making it a standout choice for any UK garden.

A magnet for pollinators and a resilient garden favourite, Salvia Black & Bloom thrives from mid-summer through to the first frost. With its upright, bushy habit and tolerance for heat, drought, and humidity, it’s a robust and low-maintenance performer. Ideal for planting at the back of borders or in large containers for long-lasting seasonal colour.
