Advanced Nursery Growers

$18.00

Buy Mystic Spires Blue Salvia Plants for sale at Advanced Nursery Growers in DeFuniak Springs, Florida.

Mystic Spires Blue Salvia (Salvia longispicata × farinacea ‘Mystic Spires Blue’) is a compact, long-blooming ornamental sage prized for its striking spikes of rich blue to blue-violet flowers. It produces abundant blooms throughout the warm growing season and adds dependable color to sunny flower beds, borders, pollinator gardens, and containers. UF/IFAS notes that Mystic Spires performs especially well in heat and humidity, making it an excellent choice for Florida landscapes.

The upright flower spikes rise above attractive green foliage and are highly appealing to butterflies and other pollinators. Mystic Spires is a more compact form of the popular ‘Indigo Spires’ salvia while still producing an impressive amount of flowers. It thrives in full sun and well-drained soil and becomes drought tolerant once established.

North Florida Growing Note: Mystic Spires Blue Salvia is especially well suited to the Florida Panhandle because it tolerates our summer heat and humidity. Plant in full sun with well-drained soil and avoid keeping the root zone constantly wet. Established plants are relatively drought tolerant and can provide months of blue flowers during the warm season. In colder winters, plants may die back but can return from the roots where temperatures remain within their hardiness range.
