Bumblesky Salvia (Salvia nemorosa 'Bumblesky') brings the soft, airy tones of a summer sky to your garden floor. A standout member of the "Bumble" series, this variety is loved for its unique light sky-blue flower spikes that are much paler and more delicate than the typical dark purples of the species. It creates a calming, "frosted" look when planted in groups or mixed with white and silver companions.

As a durable member of the Salvia genus, 'Bumblesky' is incredibly easy to grow and maintain. It features the series' signature compact, mounding habit, making it an excellent choice for path edging or low-maintenance rock gardens. It is exceptionally cold-hardy and returns reliably year after year, providing an essential early-season food source for bumblebees. Why you’ll love it: Rare light sky-blue color, tidy and compact growth, and extreme drought resistance once established.

Product Details: This Bumblesky Salvia is delivered as a healthy 4-inch live plant in a nursery pot. It reaches 10-12 inches in height and thrives in full sun.
