Growing Cathedral Deep Blue Salvia

Choose full sun and well-drained soil. Once established, water when the upper soil begins to dry rather than keeping roots constantly wet. Good drainage and airflow are especially important in Alabama’s humid weather. Trim off spent flower spikes to encourage a fresh, compact appearance and additional blooms when conditions allow.

Size: Approximately 12–18 inches tall and 12–16 inches wide. Uses: Sunny borders, pollinator plantings, and mixed containers. Winter performance varies by local conditions, so treat it as a warm-season color plant where hard freezes are common.
