Salvia La Siesta is a compact, upright perennial shrub featuring aromatic dark green foliage and elegant, elongated spikes of apricot pink flowers that bloom from summer through autumn. Its soft colouring and long flowering season make it a beautiful addition to sunny borders, cottage gardens or wildlife-friendly spaces.

Best planted in a sunny, free-draining position, it thrives in warmer areas and is especially attractive to bees, butterflies and other pollinators. Light pruning in early spring helps maintain a tidy, compact shape and encourages fresh new growth.

Half-hardy, so some winter protection may be required in colder regions.
