Rose Marvel Salvia is a standout perennial featuring dense, upright flower spikes in a rich rose-pink hue that adds bold color to sunny garden spaces. Its compact, well-branched habit makes it ideal for borders, mass plantings, and pollinator gardens, where it provides strong vertical interest without flopping. The nectar-rich blooms are highly attractive to bees and butterflies while remaining deer resistant. ‘Rose Marvel’ thrives in full sun and well-drained soil and is notably drought tolerant once established. Regular deadheading encourages repeat flowering from early June through September.
Throughout this site, the following are used as guidelines for watering established plants:
These truly xeric plants can live with our 12 inches of natural annual precipitation and only need a winter watering during a multi-year drought, but they will thrive with a monthly watering. Overwatering will kill some of these. These plants are adapted to intermittent deep
watering with soil drying to a depth of a few inches between waterings. Watering frequency may be every couple of weeks during the active growing season and maybe only one winter watering for optimal care. These plants need regular watering somewhat like a bluegrass lawn so that
they never dry to depth in the root system during the active growing season, and need occasional winter watering to prevent root dessication and resultant plant
death. About sizes of our plants:
Sizes indicated with a # are roughly the equivalent in gallonage; so a #2 is about a 2 gallon pot size; b&b stands for balled and burlapped.
