Salvia nemorosa 'Bumbleberry' is a stunning compact dwarf deep pink Salvia with fuchsia flowers on dark wine calyxes, and aromatic deep green foliage. It is perfect small gardens and at the edge of beds, and makes a bold colour statement in containers. It is HIGHLY attractive to hummingbirds, bees and other pollinators. Areas of mass planting will literally buzz with activity from later spring to early summer. Its upright form and foliage looks nice all season long, and plants will lightly re-bloom if deadheaded. Happily, it is not enjoyed by rabbits or deer.
