Description

Nothing brings a garden to life quite like Salvia, and 'Amistad' is a long-flowering beauty with luxurious deep purple blooms and striking dark stems. This stunning perennial is a must-have for borders, beds, and patio pots, delivering months of colour and movement, as its velvety flowers sway gently in the summer breeze.

Loved by bees and butterflies, this pollinator-friendly powerhouse will get your garden buzzing with life, offering nectar-rich blooms through summer. Its tall, graceful stems emerge from lush green foliage, creating height, drama, and a captivating contrast against softer pastels or golden yellows.

Incredibly easy to grow, this hardy, semi-evergreen salvia thrives in full sun or partial shade and requires little maintenance beyond occasional deadheading. Resilient and reliable, it returns bigger and stronger each year, ensuring a dazzling display season after season.

Whether you're after a statement border plant, a low-maintenance pollinator magnet, or a gorgeous container feature, Salvia 'Amistad' delivers on all fronts.

Supplied as a set of three established plants in 9cm pots, ready to plant.

Top Tips
Deadhead the plant regularly for more flowers and mulch in winter and you'll be rewarded with plants that come back bigger and stronger every year.
Care Information
  • For best results grow Salvia ‘Amistad’ in a sunny, sheltered spot in well-drained soil.
  • Deadhead regularly to encourage further flowering.
  • Mulch annually with well-rotted manure or garden compost.
  • Plants may need staking if exposed.
  • Plants will die back over winter and can be pruned in spring when growth commences.
Delivery Information

Please allow us 3-5 working days to dispatch your order. Pre-ordered items will be sent as soon as possible after the date quoted and we'll generally ship your entire order with your pre-ordered items. When your order is dispatched, we'll send you another email with details of how to track it.

Most orders are sent on a fully-tracked courier service with Yodel. To avoid perishable items being stuck at depots and deteriorating, no signature is required, and our courier is asked to leave your order in a safe place on your property.

We'll send a tracking link when we dispatch your order, so you know when its due to arrive. Please note, once delivered we cannot be held responsible for loss or theft from your property. If you have any specific delivery instructions, please let us know - there's an option to enter a short message for the courier at the checkout.

Smaller, lighter, single-item orders may be sent through the post with Royal Mail - in which case no tracking is available.

Our experienced nursery team will always send your plants nursery fresh in the perfect condition to thrive when you plant them, so although most plants are very tough and will not be affected by all but the most extreme frosts or heatwaves, we avoid dispatching the most perishable plants if extreme weather is forecast, or over Bank Holiday weekends.

Please note, we cannot guarantee delivery on a certain day or time. Delivery to outlying postcode areas may take 1-2 days longer, dependent on your location.
