Description How to Grow More Info Delivery

There’s a place for a Salvia in every garden and ‘Madeline’ is a real beauty. Bred by the celebrated garden designer, Piet Oudolf, it features spikes of eye-catching bicoloured flowers. Each flower has a violet-blue hood and a white lip edged in a matching blue. Salvia pratensis ‘Madeline’ will flowers for ages and ages – just be diligent with the dead-heading and feeding, making sure that plants are fed well after their first flush. Well fed plants that are prevented from setting seed will reward with blooms from June to September, providing pollinators with a source of food well into the end of the season. Hardy down to -10C, this drought-tolerant salvia enjoys a free-draining, sunny position, associating beautifully with grasses and other prairie perennials. Height: 70cm (28in). Spread : 45cm (18in).

Your bare roots should be planted at the earliest opportunity following delivery. In cold weather, plant your salvia bare roots into pots and grow on in a cold greenhouse or sheltered, frost-free position outdoors until growth has commenced in late spring. Plants can then be set out in their final planting positions. Choose a site in full sun in moist but freely draining soil. Drought tolerant once established. Plants are hardy down to -10C but will not appreciate being wet over winter.

Water regularly until salvia plants are fully established. Deadhead faded flowers throughout the summer to encourage more blooms to be produced.
