Plant information
Plant Description
Bring a touch of drama and charm to your garden with Salvia microphylla ‘Royal Bumble’, a stunning perennial that boasts deep magenta-purple blooms with a hint of lavender, reminiscent of a royal evening sky. Flowering from early summer through to autumn, this variety offers a long season of colour that energizes borders, patio containers, and mixed perennial beds.
Its nectar-rich flowers are irresistible to bees, butterflies, and other pollinators, turning your garden into a buzzing haven for wildlife. The aromatic foliage adds a subtle fragrance whenever brushed, giving your outdoor space an extra sensory dimension.
Unlike sprawling varieties, ‘Royal Bumble’ has a tidy, upright habit, making it ideal for structured borders or as a striking accent in containers. Thriving in full sun with well-drained soil, it is drought-tolerant once established and remarkably low-maintenance. Deadheading spent blooms encourages a second wave of flowers, extending the season’s spectacle.
In colder UK gardens, provide light frost protection to ensure the plant’s vibrant growth continues year after year. For gardeners seeking bold colour, pollinator-friendly blooms, and effortless performance, Salvia microphylla ‘Royal Bumble’ is a jewel of a perennial that elevates any sunny garden space.
All our salvia plants are grown in our specialist nursery in Staffordshire, UK, using high-quality peat-free compost. This ensures that every salvia you buy from us is healthy, well-established, and of the highest quality. Buy salvias online in the UK with confidence, knowing our plants are sustainably grown and carefully nurtured for excellent garden performance. find out more here
