I like to call “May Night” Salvia by its German name “Mainacht” because it’s a German cultivar…and because it’s just fun to say. I consider this the mack daddy of all purple sages. Bold and robust, from its deep, almost neon-bright blue-purple color to its long, bushy spikes of flowers, it makes a statement. Deadheading provides a smaller show of flowers in midsummer. Best of all, the bees love this plant, ensuring many photo opportunities!
