Salvia ‘Oriental Dove'(3L POT)

Winner of best in show at virtual Chelsea 2020. This looks a really vigorous and sturdy performer so far on the nursery. Stunning purple flowers on tall stems from June to October. Stunning sage scented leaves. Perfect for pollinators. Best in full sun and free-draining soil in pots or borders. May require winter protection with a mulch in harsher winters.

Why we love it:

• ‘Oriental Dove’ has delicate flowers – a vibrant shade of royal purple with the lower lips fringed in white, that glow against its fresh green foliage.
• Flowering from midsummer through to autumn, Salvia ‘Oriental Dove’ is perfect for injecting pops of exotic colour into the garden and bridging the August slump when earlier flowering perennials have faded and the autumn ones have yet to start.
