Salvia nemorosa Sensation White

Common Name: Sensation White Salvia

Description:
Salvia nemorosa 'Sensation White' is a compact, hardy perennial prized for its elegant pure white flower spikes that bloom from late spring through to autumn. Thriving in Melbourne’s climate, it prefers well-drained soil and full sun but can tolerate part shade. Highly drought-tolerant once established, it is a low-maintenance plant that works well in borders, cottage gardens, rockeries, and pots. The crisp white flowers contrast beautifully with its deep green, aromatic foliage, which helps deter pests. This variety is a magnet for bees and butterflies, enhancing pollinator activity in the garden. Regular deadheading encourages extended blooming, and the flowers are also excellent for cut flower arrangements.
