Salvia Lasiantha

Drought-resistant varieties of Salvia lasiantha require minimal watering during the summer, needing water only in drought conditions. In contrast, tender varieties and young plants need regular watering—about 2.5 cm (1 inch) every 7-10 days—to keep the soil from completely drying out.

Pruning salvia lasiantha in early spring encourages healthy growth and boosts flower production. Some key techniques include removing dead or diseased wood, trimming overgrown branches, and ensuring good airflow. Be sure to use clean, sharp tools to avoid causing damage, which will help encourage a robust and bushier growth habit.
