PLANT PROFILE
Two exciting new colour breaks from this very popular landscaping plant.

Salvia 'Velour Pink' and 'Velour White' offer soft velvety foliage with white and pink flower spikes throughout autumn.

Both are very dry tolerant once established and are evergreen and hardy. These vareities offer colour and texture for the garden without any special requirements.

• Mass plant for low maintenance areas

• Small gardens, patios and courtyards

• Dry or gravel style gardens

• Mediterranean-style garden or sunny herbaceous border

• Fast results for new gardens

• Great for coastal regions

CULTURAL CARE
Low watering requirements. Very dry tolerant - great for Australian conditions.

Low maintenance and easy to grow.

Apply a slow release fertiliser in spring to encourage profuse flowering.

Prune by half after main flowering to tidy then in early spring remove old stems to reveal new growth.
