Salvia ‘Clotted Cream’

Salvia ‘Clotted Cream’ is an enchanting variety prized for its elegant creamy-white flowers, which stand out beautifully against lush green foliage. The soft, refined colouring brings a sense of light and calm to borders, patio containers, and mixed perennial plantings, making it a versatile choice for gardens of all sizes.

Flowering generously from early summer through to autumn, Salvia ‘Clotted Cream’ provides a long season of interest and reliable colour. Its nectar-rich blooms are highly attractive to bees and other pollinators, helping to boost biodiversity and bring gentle movement and life into the garden throughout the warmer months.

Ideal for a sunny position in well-drained soil, this salvia forms a neat, bushy habit that works equally well in pots or towards the front of a border. Once established, it shows good drought tolerance, making it a low-maintenance option for modern gardens.

While considered hardy in much of the UK, it is advisable to provide protection during periods of severe frost. A mulch of leaf mould or bark in autumn will help safeguard the plant through colder winters, ensuring strong growth and abundant flowering the following season.

Elegant, pollinator-friendly, and long-flowering, Salvia ‘Clotted Cream’ is a charming addition to any garden.
