Quick Guide
• Deep violet-blue flowers
• Long blooming season
• Upright growth habit
• Attracts pollinators
• Drought-tolerant
Salvia nemorosa ‘Caradonna’, commonly known as Meadow Sage, is a striking perennial that enhances any garden with its rich, deep violet-blue flower spikes. Blooming from late spring to early autumn, ‘Caradonna’ offers a prolonged season of interest with its elegant, upright flower spikes that contrast beautifully with its grey-green foliage. This variety is perfect for garden borders, beds, and containers, adding height and colour to your planting schemes. It pairs beautifully with other sun-loving perennials such as Echinacea, Rudbeckia, and ornamental grasses, creating a dynamic and visually appealing garden display. In addition to its aesthetic appeal, Salvia ‘Caradonna’ is a favourite among bees, butterflies, and other pollinators, enhancing the biodiversity of your garden.
Salvia ‘Caradonna’ is easy to care for and thrives in a sunny location with well-drained soil. Plant it in spring or autumn, ensuring sufficient spacing to allow for good air circulation. Water regularly during the first growing season to establish a robust root system, then reduce watering as the plant matures, as it is quite drought-tolerant. Deadhead spent flowers to encourage continuous blooming throughout the season. Cut back the plant in late autumn to prepare it for winter and apply a layer of mulch in spring to retain soil moisture and suppress weeds. With minimal maintenance, Salvia ‘Caradonna’ will reward you with vibrant blooms year after year.
Winter: Cut back to just above ground level in late winter.
Spring: Protect new shoots from slug damage with organic slug pellets
Summer: Cut back faded flower stems throughout summer to encourage continuous flowering
