Mystic Spires Salvia (Salvia hybrid ‘Mystic Spires’)

Mystic Spires Salvia (Salvia hybrid ‘Mystic Spires’) is a vigorous flowering annual prized for its deep blue-purple flower spikes and exceptional pollinator appeal. This heat-tolerant salvia produces continuous blooms from late spring until frost, creating vibrant vertical colour in patio containers, borders, and sunny landscape beds.

The tall flower spikes rise above aromatic green foliage and attract bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds throughout the growing season. Its upright bushy growth habit makes it an excellent thriller plant in mixed annual containers while also performing beautifully in pollinator gardens and mass plantings. The rich blue flowers pair especially well with yellow, pink, white, and silver companion plants.

In Alberta, Mystic Spires Salvia performs best in full sun with fertile, well-drained soil and moderate watering. It thrives during hot Prairie summers and maintains excellent flowering performance even during periods of drought once established.
