Salvia 'Ostfriesland' – Meadow Sage
Salvia 'Ostfriesland' is a compact, upright perennial that delivers bold colour and structure to sunny borders. With its rich violet-purple flower spikes and deep green aromatic foliage, this dependable variety adds height, texture, and a long season of interest to the garden.
Flowering generously from early summer through to early autumn, 'Ostfriesland' is loved by bees, butterflies, and other pollinators. Its dense spires of small, tubular flowers rise above neat clumps of foliage, creating a striking contrast and vibrant focal point in beds, borders, and containers.
This hardy salvia thrives in full sun and well-drained soil, showing excellent heat and drought tolerance once established. It’s also deer- and rabbit-resistant, making it a smart choice for wildlife-friendly or low-maintenance gardens.
Flowering Period
June – Early flower spikes emerge
July–August – Peak display, dense and vivid flowering
September – Light reblooming with deadheading
Whether planted in groups for impact or woven through mixed schemes for contrast, Salvia 'Ostfriesland' brings colour, movement, and pollinator appeal to any sunny setting.
