Cathedral White Salvia is an extra compact long-blooming herbaceous perennial grown as an annual with aromatic green foliage. The spikes of fuzzy powdered buds open to small clear white two-lipped flowers that bloom from mid spring until frost. Flowers best in full sun and moist well-drained soils. Drought tolerant. The Cathedral series has an extra long bloom and improved disease resistance.
