Salvia X Sylvestris Schneehugel | 2 Litre Pot

Beneficial insects love them. Position: full sun Soil: light, moderately fertile, humus-rich, moist but well-drained soil Rate of growth: average Flowering period: June to October Hardiness: fully hardy Glowing white flowers crowd the upright, branching stems throughout the summer, and if deadheaded, may produce a second flush that often lasts well into autumn. Wonderful for adding vertical interest to beds and borders, the flowers are also very attractive to bees. Garden care: To prolong flowering remove the flower spikes as soon as they start to fade. Apply a generous 5-7cm (2-3in) mulch of well-rotted garden compost or manure around the base of the plant in spring.
