Purple Mexican Bush Sage
Salvia leucantha 'Purple', commonly known as Mexican Bush Sage, is a stunning perennial valued for its velvety purple flowers and attractive foliage.

The flowers of Salvia leucantha 'Purple' are borne on long spikes and appear from late summer through fall, creating a striking contrast against its gray-green leaves.

This Salvia thrives in full sun and well-drained soil, making it ideal for borders, cottage gardens, or as a standout in mixed perennial beds. With its drought tolerance and ornamental qualities, Salvia leucantha 'Purple' adds color and wildlife interest to garden landscapes during the latter part of the growing season.
