Germination

Sow indoors. Surface sow onto moist well-drained seed compost with only a sprinkling of soil to cover. Propagate temp. 20-25°C. Keep moist but not wet. Germination 10-14 days. Transplant seedlings when large enough to handle to 8cm pots and grow on in cooler conditions. Acclimatise and plant out once danger of frost has passed with 30cm spacing.

Growing

Requires full sun to do well, once established requires little watering.

Cultivation

Remove faded flower spikes to prolong flowering. Deadhead if you do not want it to self-seed. If you wish to collect seed allow the spherical heads to become dry and brown before cutting. Do not remove old stems until new growth appears in spring. Best time to divide perennial Salvias is in early spring prior to new growth emerging.
