Flowering Salvias: Color and Performance for Landscapes
Flowering salvias are among the most versatile and extensive options for designing green spaces. These perennial plants are highly valued for their resilience—many withstand temperatures as low as -10°C—and their remarkable adaptability to drought and saline conditions. They thrive in full sun and tolerate partial shade equally well.
In short, they’re a plant for every situation.
Some varieties remain compact and low (15–20 cm), while others can grow over 2 meters tall. All are manageable with proper pruning.
At BM Flor, we offer a selection of more than 100 salvia varieties, covering a wide color palette—from deep blues to soft pinks—and diverse growth habits.
