Salvia

Hi all,

Please can you help ID this Salvia



Is it a perennial?

Thanks

Sara

Morning Sara, no, I'm sorry, I can't identify it, but I can say ALMOST certainly it will be a perennial. However, some Salvias are not fully hardy, so I'd take a few cuttings now, they root quite easily, just in case. Hopefully, someone else will tell you more.

Hi Sara. Although mine hasn't got the white eye of your one ( that's lovely!) , it looks very similar. Mine is actually more purply than the photo shows.

And mine is definitely perennial, (don't know the name of mine either)

It could be Victoria Blue Salvia?

Could it be Salvia "Black and Blue"

Here's a photo of some I had growing in my last garden.



Have a look at this link too.

Looks like the traditional salvia "victoria" which is usually grown as a bedding plant.
