Salvia nemorosa ‘Rose Marvel’
I have had this variety in my garden of the last two years and it is wonderful! It has been hard to find and I jumped at the chance when it spotted it on your site. This is truly worthy of the description: compact, large-flowers and long blooming. Needs full sun, good drainage and periodic deadheading. Mine bloomed all summer in 2023 and still going into Fall. Since deer avoid it for the most part, this has become one of my favorite perennials. Don’t hesitate to try it in your garden. I have also purchased the ‘Blue Marvel’ and hope that it performs just as well.
