Salvia clevelandii 'Pacific Blue' – Cleveland Sage

Pacific Blue is a stunning selection of Salvia clevelandii, a true California native sage species endemic to the coastal sage scrub and chaparral of Southern California. This vigorous, large-growing selection produces deep blue-violet flowers of exceptional richness and intensity on tall wand-like stems throughout spring and into summer. The strongly aromatic gray-green foliage carries the classic California sage fragrance beloved by native plant gardeners. Native bees and hummingbirds are drawn irresistibly to the flower spikes.
