Salvia guaranitica 'Black & Blue' – Anise-Scented Sage
One of the most beloved salvias in cultivation, Salvia guaranitica 'Black & Blue' is a hummingbird magnet that produces long spikes of vivid cobalt-blue flowers emerging from near-black calyces — a dramatic color contrast that makes it one of the most striking plants in the summer and fall garden. The anise-scented foliage adds another sensory dimension, and the plant's vigorous, upright habit makes it a bold presence in mixed borders and pollinator gardens. Drought tolerant once established and a reliable performer in warm climates.
