Hello,

I am really glad you had such a good time in the garden, it is looking lovely at the moment! I think the Salvia you have seen is Salvia x sylvestris 'Rugen' - a great variety which is repeated down the borders, keep deadheading it and it will flower throughout the summer until the frost gets it.

Hope this answers your question!

regards

Hi there,

Had a lovely time at Harlow Carr yesterday. Just wondering if someone could help... I'm wondering what variety the amazing, huge blue salvias are on the main, long border down the hill (the really massive clumps)? It began with 'r' but sadly I forgot to take a note. I have never seen so many bees attracted to one plant!!! I was hoping I'd find it in the plant centre, but didn't. Many thanks!
