PLACEMENT & CULTIVATION
A natural hybrid of S. gregii and S. microphylla, this waterwise plant was discovered in the village of Jame in Mexico. Salvia VIBE Ignition brings a superbly branched compact form to gardens and containers. Tolerant of both dry and humid heat; however, some dappled afternoon shade in hot summer areas is beneficial. It prefers soil lower in nitrogen, and amended with organic matter, such as compost added to a freely- draining soil. Deadhead to encourage continual bloom and where hardy, prune to just a few inches above the plant's crown in spring.
