Plant Features
Our Purple Rain Hardy Salvia Plant is the epitome of the 'set it and forget it' plant. It provides oodles of gorgeous purple spikes that rise above the green, fuzzy foliage. Once established, this beauty is drought tolerant, and will come back year after year. Deadheading ensures continuing blossoms throughout the season. Known to attract butterflies, you can even grow these in containers to add color and height!
