Seasonal Progression

Keep pollinators buzzing through your garden with this combo of perennials. The Profusion Salvia and Paint the Town Dianthus will begin blooming early for a brilliant display in spring and early summer. Trimming back the Salvia after bloom will provide second and third flushes of flowers. Sporadic rebloom will color the Dianthus through fall. Beginning in late summer Denim ‘n Lace Russian Sage and ROCK ‘N GROW® Sedum will burst into bloom providing color through fall. Leave the Sedum standing through winter for extra garden texture and as a food source for birds.
