Salvia Summer Jewel™ Lavender

2016 AAS Flower Winner

The fourth AAS Winner in the Summer Jewel™ series of popular AAS Salvia Winners is the newest in color, Summer Jewel™ Lavender.  The unique flower color of dusty lavender purple is a delight in the garden and flower containers as well as a major attractor of pollinators including bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds. An extra bonus is how much the Goldfinch loves these flower seeds in the fall.  It’s a photo-ready moment when these complementary colors of gold and lavender connect!  The early blooming, stable, compact uniform growth and continuous flowering of this plant are additional positives to this plant.

  1. AAS Display Garden- River Valley Master Gardeners – 08/10/2018

    Summer Jewel Lavender is easy to grow from seed, very vigorous grower and continuous blooms all summer.
    The blooms are a dusky lavender, reminiscent of romantic Victorian hues. It is an absolute pollinator magnet– many types of large and small bees and butterflies visit.
    Plant this salvia in a container with Evening Scentsation Petunia in a location where you can sit and enjoy the show. Zone 6a
