The slender flower spikes are held on strong stems above mounds of grey-green foliage, bringing vertical interest and intense colour to borders and containers. 'Sensation Compact Deep Blue' offers a more compact habit than species types, making it perfect for smaller spaces, patio containers, and front to mid-border positions. The long flowering period and intense blue colour make it invaluable for creating contemporary colour schemes or combining with hot colours for dramatic contrast. The flowers are particularly attractive to pollinators and provide continuous colour from June through to the first frosts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eOther benefits:\u003c\/b\u003e long flowering season, compact habit, suitable for containers, excellent for pollinators\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWildlife attraction:\u003c\/b\u003e bees, butterflies, hoverflies\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eHeight \u0026amp; spread (approx.) at maturity:\u003c\/b\u003e 45cm x 30cm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePosition:\u003c\/b\u003e full sun\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSoil pH:\u003c\/b\u003e adaptable; performs well in neutral to slightly alkaline conditions\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eMoisture:\u003c\/b\u003e moderate watering needs; well-drained soil essential\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWinter hardiness:\u003c\/b\u003e treat as annual; hardy to light frosts only\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Coletta \u0026 Tyson","offers":[{"title":"1 litre x 3","offer_id":57007698608506,"sku":"COL-1LTR-SAL-DEE-BLUX3","price":25.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"1 litre x 6","offer_id":57007698641274,"sku":"COL-1LTR-SAL-DEE-BLUX6","price":41.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0320\/6758\/4138\/files\/Salvia-farinacea-Sensation-Compact-Deep-Blue-1L-Cedar-Nursery-Surrey-1.png?v=1771519430","url":"https:\/\/www.landscaping.co.uk\/products\/ct-salvia-farinacea-sensation-compact-deep-blue-herbaceous","provider":"Cedar Nursery - Plants and Outdoor Living","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
