Salvia PERFECT POLLINATOR® ‘Raspberry ’

Common Name:
Salvia PERFECT POLLINATOR® ‘Raspberry’
Common name – Sage

Description:
Salvia PERFECT POLLINATOR® ‘Raspberry’ is a vibrant, long-flowering perennial prized for its rich raspberry-pink flower spikes and compact, well-branched habit. Bred for exceptional garden performance and pollinator appeal, this variety produces masses of tubular blooms from spring through to late autumn in Melbourne’s temperate climate. The colourful flower spikes rise above aromatic green foliage, creating a bright and energetic display that works beautifully in mixed borders, cottage gardens, and decorative pots. Thriving in full sun and well-drained soil, it performs reliably through Melbourne’s warm summers once established and shows good tolerance to dry conditions. Regular deadheading will encourage continuous flowering and maintain a neat, bushy shape. Its extended bloom time and strong pollinator activity make it a standout addition to any sunny garden space.
