Description
Salvia verticillata ‘Purple Rain’
Soft mounds of mid-green, slightly hairy leaves give rise to long, reddish stems carrying whorls of rich purple flowers that create a buzz with pollinators. Salvia verticillata ‘Purple Rain’ was made famous by the renowned designer, Piet Oudolf, who frequently used it his prairie garden schemes, where it was valued for its resilience, adaptability and long flowering season. This hardy salvia makes a good choice for the front of the border where it softens hard edges with a purple haze that keeps flowering for weeks on end. Height and Spread: 60cm (24in).
