Category: Plants

A slower-growing evergreen shrub-like salvia, semiatrata means half darkened, referring to the darker shading along the corolla tube of its mauve-lavender flowers with contrasting magenta calyces. The colourful flowers, offset against small emerald-green foliage, appear throughout the year in bursts. They peak in summer and autumn, especially if tip-pruned throughout the growing season. A perfect companion for lavenders and dwarf agapanthus and useful for a sloping bank that basks in full sun.

Lily ★★★★★

Those magenta calyces really pop against the mauve flowers, exactly as described. It's settling in slowly but the contrast is already stunning in the garden.

Robert Q. ★★★★★

The contrasting magenta calyces against the soft mauve flowers are absolutely stunning in person. It's settling in nicely and seems to be a slow but steady grower, which is perfect for my small garden space.

Ryan L. ★★★★★

The darker shading on the petals is even prettier in person, and the magenta calyces really pop against the green foliage. It’s slow to grow, sure, but it’s already holding its shape nicely in my garden bed.
