Rose Marvel and Dark Matter™ Meadow Sage Duo
Salvia nemorosa
Description | Two of our favorite salvias planted together in one container. The deep indigo of Dark Matter and the soft lavender-pink of Rose Marvel are a delightful combination. Starts blooming early and reblooms throughout the summer. Especially effective in mass plantings, but also nice for mixed borders and containers. Loved by pollinators. Herbaceous perennial. |
