Salvia, Lutea – Salvia microphylla is a tall, strongly growing Salvia with scented foliage. Buttery cream flowers which look very striking against almost black calyces and dark flower stems. The flowers are also particularly attractive to bees and other pollinators.
Salvias are great in the border or alternatively in pots or containers. Plant in a sunny spot in well drained soil.
As with most salvias trim back in late summer for Autumn flowering and then leave over the winter. A trim in the warmth of the spring will help strong re-growth.
