Description
Salvia 'Endless Love', which arose as a seedling from Salvia verticillata 'Purple Rain', forms a 2' tall x 3' wide rosette of stems, each clothed in 5" long, fuzzy, hastate green leaves and topped, starting in mid-June (NC) with 9" long, upright, branched spikes of light lavender flowers, a hummingbird delight. In growth, it is much more robust than Salvia 'Purple Rain', with a longer flowering period.
