Description

New to Perch Hill in the nectar garden, I love picking this with its brilliant electric blue flowers for much of summer and autumn. The pollinators love it too.

Care Tips

Cut back from mid-April to May leaving a framework of woody branches a few inches tall. This is a low-maintenance, drought tolerant plant once established. Perovskia can be propagated from semi-hardwood cuttings taken in July.
