Salvia nemorosa ‘Caradonna’ is one of the most distinctive hardy salvias, known for its intense violet-purple flower spikes carried on striking dark, almost black stems. Flowering from early to mid-summer, the upright spires create strong vertical accents above aromatic grey-green foliage.
Compact, robust, and long-flowering, this reliable perennial is ideal for sunny borders, gravel gardens, and contemporary planting schemes. Its dramatic flower colour contrasts beautifully with softer pastels and ornamental grasses, while the nectar-rich blooms are highly attractive to bees and other pollinators. Pairs well with other sun-loving perennials
All the plants were beautifully healthy and, unlike so many these days, not at all root bound. A joy – thank you !
