Product Description

Salvia ‘Fashionista Evening Attire’ is a beautifully refined perennial sage from the acclaimed Fashionista Series, valued for its dramatic flower colour and neat clump-forming growth habit. The densely packed violet-blue blooms rise above aromatic foliage in early summer, bringing vibrant colour and vertical structure to planting schemes.

Its richly coloured flower spikes contrast beautifully against the dark green scented leaves, making this variety particularly effective in cottage gardens, wildlife-friendly borders, and contemporary perennial displays. The nectar-rich flowers are highly attractive to bees and beneficial pollinators, helping to support biodiversity in the garden.

Reaching an eventual height of around 60cm, this versatile Salvia performs well in both sunny borders and large patio pots. It thrives in moist but well-drained soil and tolerates a variety of soil conditions, including chalk, loam, and sandy soils.
