Salvia Seeds are sun-loving and warm. Sowing seeds between the months of October to February in India will provide adequate growth. 15°C to 30°C is the plants’ preference.

Plant the seeds uniformly over the soil and press them gently. Since they germinate in light, do not cover them with a lot of soil. Water the soil lightly so that it does not get dry. Small plants will grow within 10 to 14 days. Celosia light yellow is a good companion

Salvia prefers full sun. A position of 6 to 8 hours of direct sunlight will provide sturdy growth and regular flowering. Water plants every other week but allow soil to dry out between times. Excessive water will rot roots and draw in fungal disease, so always test soil for moisture before watering.

Feeding regularly promotes flowering. Compost or fertilizer from balanced chemicals applied continuously in two- or three-weekly intervals provides the necessary nutrients. Excessive nitrogen encourages leaf growth and inhibits flowering. Salvia with strong growth produces strong stalks and flowers year-rounda also.

Salvia Seeds are highly resistant to pests, but infestations do occur at times. But Inspect for aphids, spider mites, and caterpillars. Hence Control them with neem oil or the insecticidal soap spray without killing the beneficial insects. Air circulation between the plants properly clears the leaves of fungal infection and maintains leaf health in the right order.

Lastly Salvia Seeds flowers 60 to 80 days after planting. Flowers are long-lasting, with color and beauty to the garden throughout the growing season. Removing the faded flowers every day encourages more blooms. The pruning of large branches results in keeping the plant healthy and compact.

 In full sun, frequent feeding, and pest control, the plants grow well and create a wonderful garden sight. With their simplicity and maintenance, they are a great choice for home gardens and landscapes also.
