Why We Love It
Why We Love It
A first-choice destination for bees and butterflies, the deep violet-blue flower spikes of Salvia nemorosa ‘Ostfriesland’ will be a hive of activity with pollinators all summer and into autumn.
Spires of intense colour are held above clumps of green foliage, making a dramatic feature when grown towards the front of borders.
This robust, Royal Horticultural Society Award of Garden Merit-winning perennial works a treat when planted in gravel and Mediterranean-style gardens, too.
