Perennial salvias bring vibrant pops of color to flower beds from midsummer into fall. With aromatic foliage, square stems, and dense spikes of blooms that attract bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds, there is much to adore about salvias.
Over several seasons, though, the display can wane, which is why it is advisable to divide salvias every 3-4 years. Lifting and dividing the perennial is a relatively simple job for early spring, and the reward is 4-6 new plants to add to your garden, at no cost.
