Purple Rain Salvia features pretty, tiny purple blooms in bunches, lining its arching reddish stems throughout summer. Be sure to grab a few of stems of perfumed blooms for your cut-flower arrangements. Purple Rain brings butterflies and hummingbirds to the landscape, but hungry rabbits tend to avoid it. This salvia, also called whorled sage, is a great go-to for most any garden. It's very reliable and easy to care for, fits right into a cottage or prairie garden, and stays compact enough for city and courtyard gardens. It even thrives in costal gardens.
