Salvia (Salvia Horminum Blue Monday) - These annuals are easily grown from Salvia seeds, and they provide vivid color that lasts from summer through fall. Also known as Salvia Horminum Clary, this annual Blue Salvia plant is native to an area extending from the Mediterranean to the Crimea and into Iran. The botanical name Salvia Horminum is synonymous with Salvia Viridis. Salvia Blue Monday quickly grows up to 28 inches tall and about 12 inches wide. The brilliant purple-blue flowers last well as cut flowers or dried flowers. The plant prefers loose soil, good drainage, moderate water, and mostly sunny locations.

How To Grow Salvia From Seeds: For earlier blooms, sow Salvia flower seeds indoors 10 weeks before last frost. Sow Salvia flower seed in starter trays and press the seed into the soil. Salvia flower seed needs light to germinate. When the frost season has passed, transplant Salvia seedlings into the garden 12 - 18 inches apart in a sunny location. Or, sow Salvia flower seeds outdoors in spring after frost danger has passed and prepare soil by weeding it and loosening it. Lightly rake the flower seeds into the soil and keep the seeds and young Salvia seedlings moist until well-established. Provide plenty of water in dry weather. Salvia plants grow best when provided moist, but well-drained soil in full sun to partial shade. Salvia Flower Care: Remove the spent flower spikes to promote continued blooming. If the Salvia Horminum plants begin to look tired in mid-summer, trim them back by 1/3, and they will be re-energized and reward you with more blooming.

Blue Sage will do best in areas that have moderate humidity. After an extended period of flowering, trim the Salvia Farinacea plant back to produce a thicker and more compact foliage and a shorter flowering plant. The trim will delay flowering for a few days, but it is important in preventing leggy plants, and the blooms will come back heavily.

Salvia Farinacea

Salvia (Salvia Farinacea Blue Victory) - Growing Salvia seed is so rewarding. The butterflies and hummingbirds will love your xeriscape garden when you grow these beauties! Blue Victory Salvia plants are heavy blooming, compact and give a spectacular display of color. They feature multiple spikes of blue and white two-toned flowers over a long season starting in late spring and lasting through fall. Leaves are long and toothed, soft green nearly silver in color, especially the undersides. They are great as a drought tolerant border plant, container plant, or as a cut flower for fresh or dried bouquets. The plants are tender perennials that are commonly grown as annuals in most cold winter areas.

Blue Salvia grows well in lean to average soil and prefers slightly dry soil that is well drained. Fertilize only as needed. They will bloom continuously in warm weather and survive light freezes. Afternoon shade is appreciated in very hot areas, and it prolongs the life of the plant which may last several years. In ideal conditions, plants may last up to 5 years. As an added benefit, Salvias are generally deer resistant!

Sow Salvia seeds indoors 6 - 8 weeks before last frost, or outside after danger of frost has passed. Do not cover the flower seeds since they need light to germinate. The seeds need continual moisture, and for the first year, water the plants to help them establish well. After establishment, mealcup sage will be quite resistant to drought. Clumps can also be divided in the spring.
