Salvia mexicana 'Tula' (Mexican Sage)

Salvia mexicana 'Tula' – A Compact Mexican Sage

'Tula' is a cultivar of the typically towering Mexican sage (Salvia mexicana), selected for a more compact, manageable stature while retaining the species' magnificent, long, deep blue flower spikes with contrasting dark calyces. It blooms in late summer and fall, providing a vertical accent when many other perennials are fading. Its smaller size makes it suitable for smaller gardens and mixed borders.
