Product Details

Caradonna Salvia

Salvia nemorosa ‘Caradonna’

Caradonna Salvia is a crowd favorite known for its striking violet-blue flower spikes that rise above dark purple stems from spring into summer. Compact and tidy, it reaches 18 to 24 inches in height and width, making it perfect for borders, mass plantings, and pollinator-friendly beds. Its aromatic foliage and long bloom season ensure beauty and resilience, even in hot, dry Texas conditions. Even in winter, the dark stems and clumps of basal foliage provide structure, keeping beds from looking bare.

  • Perennial plant
  • Moderate growth rate
  • Violet-blue flower spikes with dark stems
  • Attracts pollinators
  • Drought- and heat-tolerant once established

Plant Caradonna Salvia in full sun with well-drained soil. Hardy in USDA zones 4 through 9, it’s a long-blooming, pollinator-friendly addition to Texas beds. Caradonna Salvia reblooms reliably if deadheaded, often giving landscapes a second flush of vibrant color later in the season.
