Salvias are among the most versatile perennials for the landscape and Color Spires Snow Kiss Salvia is a new hybrid of the well-loved native. Grow it for the spikes of pretty white, tubular flowers kissed on the tips with pink. Or add it to a container or border to enjoy the fragrant flowers and foliage. You also might want several of these plants because they attract bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds.
Of course, there is the easy care that salvias thrive on and their resistance to both deer and rabbits. With so many reasons to grow this salvia, the only decision left is how many. One of its most effective uses in the landscape is planting in drifts. Alternate a mass, row, or section of the 20-inch high Color Spires Snow Kiss Salvia with a favorite purple or red salvia for a rainbow of color in spring and summer. This salvia is a perennial in zones 3 through 8.
Color Spires® Snow Kiss Salvia Care
Plant your salvia where it can enjoy full sun, at least 6 hours of exposure a day. Salvias can grow in nearly any type of soil. Although the mature plant can survive periods of drought, it will flower best with average, consistent watering. Water salvia slowly and deeply when the container or ground soil feels dry.
Salvias do not need much to flower other than sun and water. They can benefit from an occasional fertilizer application, such as in spring once the plant begins growing again after a winter rest. Or add some compost to the ground or container and gently work it into the soil around the plant. Cut off faded flower stems at the foliage level after the first bloom period and the plant will likely produce more blooms later in the season.
Color Spires® Snow Kiss Salvia Spacing
Be sure to give Color Spires Snow Kiss Salvia plenty of room to reach its mature height and spread. Space each plant about 22 to 24 inches from center to center.

Plant Addicts Warranty - 1 Year (Extra Purchase Required)
We encourage all plant lovers to purchase the Plant Addicts Warranty, whether you're a new gardener or an expert. There are many variables outside of anyone's control that can cause a plant to die.

The warranty is purchased on a per plant basis and must be purchased at the same time as the plant(s). We will cover 100% of the price of the plant, but the warranty does not cover shipping costs.

Plant Shipping
Below are some factors we consider when determining when to ship the plants depending on the timing of the order.
Winter to Early Spring
We ship only when it's warm enough to plant in your growing zone.
Sometimes plants aren't completely ready to sell and ship in early spring. We will wait until the plants are ready before shipping so you don't get a subpar product.
For Southern plants we will be able to ship much earlier than plants coming from our northern nursery.
Summer
If there is extreme heat we may delay shipping for a week or several weeks.
We review what areas the plants are traveling through as well as your location.
Fall into Winter
We’ll ship plants out all the way up to the end of the fall planting season!
Winter
Get your order in early to reserve your plants for Spring planting!
Once your plant is shipped you’ll receive an automated email with tracking information.
