Rockin' Deep Purple salvia tags say it's only hardy in zones 9-10 but I've had it reliably return in my zone 7b garden the past 3-5 years. It's a bit of a bully similar to your larger purple/black but such a pollinator favorite. I also really love my japanese yellow sage (Salvia koyamae) which is more of a shade garden/woodland garden groundcover sage that blooms in the fall.

I was just walking through my yard yesterday and decided that the salvia, both annual and perennial, is my favorite plant in the garden. They can take the heat and the lack of rain and just keep on blooming. I think my favorites are the Pink, Violet and White Profusion by Proven Winners and the summer jewel series.

We are in zone 5A in Madison, Wisconsin. Our favorite salvia is Salvia Amistad. What a tremendous plant. It easily grows to 5 feet or taller and is covered in flowers that the hummingbirds adore. We have also discovered that the tubers can be dug up and stored in a yard waste bag over the wintertime. Plant the tubers in the spring, and the plants vigorously grow.

I'm in Indy (6a),and bought 3 April Night salvias in early spring and put them in a half barrel. I'm just finishing the 3rd round of blooms and will cut them back this weekend. There must be 50 spires that are close to a foot tall. This little trio of 6" tall baby salvias has gone crazy! The bees go nuts over them, and each new bloom is bigger than the last! All salvias are just the best bang for buck plants I own. Maybe 5.98 each at Lowe's in the spring and bam!

Black and Blue guaranitica (and most likely the Rockin deep purple and blue suede shoes) have tubers. I have divided mine just fine in the past. For those in cooler than zone 7/8, you could try trimming the plant back to about 6-8" and then when you dig it up look for tubers with a stem intact and place them in a pot in a location that stays above 40-50* that is sheltered from wind/rain during winter. When last frost date has passed, plant them in soil or continue growing them in an appropriate sized pot. I'm zone 8b, so I've not tried it, but have divided the plant by separating clumps of tubers (don't cut the tubers themselves).

I discovered salvia Victoria white this year with a cell pack, and I was delighted to know that you can save the seed because I germinated a couple already. It is an amazing thriller in my potted plants. I did plant one in the ground and it didn’t seem to thrive as much, but maybe next year I will direct seed it and see if it turns into a stronger plant in the ground as I have clay.

For our Wisconsin hummingbird garden, Salvia 'Amistad' is a true winner and brings in hummingbirds all season long. Tall and long blooming with vibrant purple flowers in dark calyces and no deadheading, it is a true winner in our garden. We dig up the roots in late fall and store them in a black plastic garbage bag in our minimally heated sun room and plant in the spring and they grow 6 feet tall. We would highly recommend this beautiful salvia for anyone and who can resist a plant with the common name of "Friendship Sage"?

I have May Night and East Friesland and a pink one. The Frieslands are 11 years old and one of the May nights is 3 years old. They perform well in the spring but when our (7a) temperatures reach the upper 90’s they turn brown and go dormant until the next spring. I think they may need dappled sun, not the full sun they get now. Plus this year they got pushed out by some very, very thuggish silver carpet lamb’s ear (which is coming out!). I keep thinking the heat zone for these salvias should be 7. I just love the smoother leaf, larger flower salvias like you showed especially that coral one that you need a whole year to get established. Really pretty.

Salvia aren't terribly showy, but I've been falling in love with them, because they are such a work horse for me! Mystic Spires Blue (farinacea) are always covered in bees. I have Black and Blue (guaranitica) and it can definitely become thuggish, but hummingbirds go to that first in my garden. My dad has some in Oklahoma 7a that is planted next to his brick house on the east side and it is doing great, made it through winter '22.

I love summer jewels red salvia. I only plant the red variety because I want them to reseed themselves as red. They are very aggressive at reseeding themselves which is a big plus for me. I have to thin them down a bit each spring as well as pulling up plants that spread to areas I don't want, but they are very easy to remove and look fantastic from late spring to late fall here in Dallas. In my beds where the soil is improved they get 3+ feet tall by end of summer.

I suggest you try growing Salvia BODACIOUS Hummingbird Falls. Great container salvia, ground cover or even for hanging baskets because of its growth pattern. It is a Salvia x guaranitica variety with large saturated dark cobalt blue blooms with striking black calyxes similar to Black and Blue salvia. It only grows around 12 to 24 inches high and can spread from 18 to 36 inches and produces many flowers. A true hummingbird magnet.

Pollinators love them, but my Anise Hyssop (agastache) has them beat for being a pollinator magnet. I also have many other salvias in the yard, including a 25 ft section of May Knight, Black & Blue (hummingbird favorite), some Hot Lips and a few other perennial varieties that I have forgotten then name of at the moment. I try to have salvias that bloom at different times of the year.

Very interesting . I had mixed results with salvia this year. I am in 6b and Black and Blue unexpectedly came back for me (and also reseeded) although it is a 7-10 plant-- I am going to be interested in watching what happens to this little patch over this next winter. I have been buying Amistad and Brazilian Blue plants (also 7-10 guaraniticas I believe, but anyway not 6b) mail order and they have always grown and bloomed like crazy but not this year -- I still don't have a single flower and the plants are not very vigorous. Not dying, just sitting there. I am mystified as they are in the same spots they liked in previous years -- maybe our dry spring followed by very rainy July??? Bad seedlings??? I also grow lots of the hardier types -- such great plants! I hope to try more of the annual types from seed next year -- salvia farinacea just keeps blooming so is very nice to provide color during periods when the perennials are in transition.

I am absolutely obsessed with salvias, although the perennial kind that I buy in pots that typically have purple flower stalks that you’re supposed to mow down to have it re-bloom again, I don’t find that I really like the smell of it. I did buy a couple varieties, and I want to see if I can save seed from them, as I believe one that surprised me was from seed that I never planted. I have been able to find a few seeds in some of the varieties and surprisingly the proven winners fuchsia one, I am trying to germinate them and see what they turn into but honestly, even if it doesn’t come up same as the parent plant I love salvias so it’s better than keeping them as cuttings over the winter.

For Jim or anyone else reading the comments to this video, what kind of spacing do you recommend for the Mystic Spires Blue Salvia? I've seen recommendations for 12-18" apart as a bedding plant, and I've also seen recommendations for 2-3' apart (making sure they weren't talking about the older, pre-2018 version). Such a wide range of suggestion.

I'm in Zone 7, with lots of deer. I need a tall salvia so I don't see my neighbor and I want plenty of Hummingbirds to come. What one would you recommend?

I had a group of 3 called "black and blue" which is probably the same that you featured. I hoped to get a big clump with the 3 plants to fill a big space but 2 of the 3 didn't make it thru winter. Do you recon the 2 were different or perhaps they just hadn't had the time to get established enough to come back??? I took the one that came back well, and bent down 4 stalks and tried air layering off that one plant. It doesn't look great for now but maybe next year I will get a big patch of the "more hardy" plant ,,,,,"black & blue". Maybe???

Jim, The local nursery's have a very few shrubs & trees I want but it's too early to plant here in zone 6B. Since the nursery's successfully keep these plants healthy during august and into the fall...can I go ahead & buy them now & keep them well watered, & out of direct sun, staying healthy until I'm ready to plant in fall? Is the heat around the outside of the containers damaging?

Any tips for a salvia that keeps flopping? I'm in zone 5 and it's perennial purple blooming (unsure of variety). I just planted it last year. I tried cutting it down by half, it flushed back and flopped. Should I divide already?

Enh, rabbits will eat just about anything. I had annual salvia that got completely mowed down by the local rabbits. Thankfully, I moved and now I have zero rabbits. 😂
