Overview

This compact perennial flowering sage brings reliable colour from late spring right through to autumn, with upright stems carrying clusters of bright two-tone flowers. The blooms shift in shade with the season, opening in warm orange and yellow tones before softening to cream and salmon pink as cooler weather sets in. Grey-green, aromatic foliage adds year-round interest and makes an attractive backdrop to the long flower spikes.

Salvia ‘Belle de Loire’ forms a neat clump and performs well in both borders and containers. Its nectar-rich flowers are highly attractive to bees and other pollinators. Easy to grow in sunny, well-drained soil, it is a versatile choice for adding seasonal colour and fragrance while providing valuable support for wildlife.

Care guide

When planting, incorporate compost to improve drainage and fertility, spacing plants 30-45cm (12-18in) apart and watering thoroughly.

To keep the plant blooming throughout the season, promptly remove flower spikes as soon as they begin to fade - this deadheading encourages the plant to produce more flowers rather than putting energy into seed production.

In early spring, apply a generous 5-7cm (2-3in) mulch of well-rotted garden compost or manure around the base of the plant to retain moisture, suppress weeds, and provide essential nutrients as it breaks down. Ensure the mulch is spread evenly, but keep it away from the stems to prevent rot.

Regular watering, particularly in dry spells, will help maintain healthy growth, but be careful not to waterlog the soil, as this salvia prefers well-drained conditions.
