Plant Features
The Evolution Salvia Plant is considered to be in the blue color family, though it is actually the loveliest shade of deep lavender, almost violet. Our Evolution Tropical Sage has proven to be drought tolerant in trials and also has few disease or pest problems. This easy-to-care-for Salvia doesn't even have to be deadheaded to continue to bloom. Each brilliantly colored flower spike will be 6-7 inches long and can be dried for all-season indoor flower arrangements. Known to attract butterflies and hummingbirds!
