A lovely compact dwarf Salvia with pure white flowers, and aromatic, deep green foliage. Salvia nemorosa 'Bumblesnow' is perfect for containers, small gardens and at the edge of beds. This white meadow sage 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.
