Color Spires^® 'Back to the Fuchsia' Perennial Salvia Salvia hybrid

I planted 2 of these a year ago and LOVE them!! They did quite well last summer despite blazing heat and this year - WOW, they've doubled in size!! Together they cover a width of 5 feet and height of 30", exceeding my expectations. I hope I can find a few more to plant this spring in a place that needs that size & mass of color.

Hi I got this plant iin May and was in a hurry to plant my container of mixed sun loving plants. It was in its first bloom and I love the vibrancy and hearty structure. I have cut it back already and it has sent up further flushes. I just checked it this morning and I will be cutting it back again for a further bloom. The plant has a very strong growth habit and has taken over somewhat in the container but not to the point of damagilng growth of the other plants...however i think it would do best in either a stand alone pot or in the landscape because of its push for "room" habit. I was glad to see that the plant is a perennial and would highly recommend it for zone appropriate areas. Its a big draw for pollinators. I give the plant a huge two thumbs up.
