Description
Salvia lycioides
Salvia lycioides, commonly known as the Gregg’s Sage, is an evergreen semi-shrubby plant native to the Mediterranean region. This attractive plant typically reaches heights of 60-90cm, forming a neat, bushy mound. It features delicate, narrow, grey-green leaves and produces lovely violet-blue to purple flowers from late spring through summer, making it a charming addition to gardens and containers.
Culturally, Salvia lycioides thrives in full sun and well-draining soil, making it ideal for the UK’s brighter locations. It tolerates poor soil conditions and is remarkably drought-resistant once established, requiring minimal watering during the growing season. Prune lightly after flowering to maintain its compact shape. Feed sparingly in spring with a balanced fertiliser. Propagation is simple through softwood cuttings taken in summer, and the plant attracts pollinators, making it excellent for wildlife gardens.
