Description
Salvia leucantha x chiapensis 'Phyllis Fancy' is one of the best and taller Salvias, both for your garden and for your home, as the cut stems maintain their brilliant colour when in a vase or arrangement.Downy white, tubular, open-mouthed blooms, pick up a lavender blue tint from the unusual dark blue-purple calyces, and become delicately flushed with mauve shades. The profusion of blooms are held on tall wiry stems from June to November, enticing pollinators closer for investigation.A member of the sage family, an aroma is released when the semi-evergreen foliage is disturbed. Much loved by our pollinating friends who visit for a nectar-rich feast. Salvia leucantha x chiapensis 'Phyllis Fancy' originates from the Mediterranean, drought tolerant and deer resistant, preferring well-drained soil in sun or part shade. Reaching a mature height and spread of 1.5m, and spreading to 1.2m, 'Phyllis' Fancy' is a half-hardy perennial (H3 on the RHS scale) so may need protection if temperatures dip below -5 C.
