SALVIA 'Fashionista Evening Attire'

Salvia 'Fashionista Evening Attire' is a hardy, clump-forming perennial ideal for sunny Irish borders and containers, producing upright spires of richly coloured purple flowers from early to late summer that are highly attractive to pollinators. Best in full sun and moderately fertile, well-drained soil, it responds well to regular deadheading to prolong the display. Compact and upright, plants typically reach 60–90cm tall and 30–60cm wide, providing strong vertical accents in mixed plantings.

To help give a clear sense of scale, the stone wall shown in our photos measures approximately 265cm in height. We also use familiar garden tools as visual references: a digging fork (110cm tall) and a hand fork (30cm tall). These are included purely as size guides to help you better judge proportions when viewing the images.
