I think this video is for advanced gardeners. The video seems very informative but it went over this beginners head. Thank you for your time in making it.
3:32 I've never had any disease problems with my salvials. I thought they were completely disease resistant... I believe mine have been consistently healthy because I don't shove synthetic fertilizers down their throat, stressing the plants' immune system and harming beneficial soil microbes. I only mulch them with compost twice a year and occasionally feed them with liquid seaweed fertilizer. I'm in zone 7 and a very wet climate. And I grow everything no-dig
For those struggling to grow this plant naturally outside, probably don't live in an climate suitable for salvia. Bags can be used for heavy frost. Both paper, or netting. I also seen comments about pruning. Well once the stalks turn brown and die off, cut them down to a uniform shape (volleyball). My salvia are mounding perennials and come back every year. wilmington, nc here.
I’m lost! How do I protect in from our Canadian colder fall and brutal winters??? And where do there seeds proper gate I can’t find where the seeds are?
They are not complicated just plant in full sun and if the flower heads get huge and start to flop over just trim the plant down and new flowers will emerge. They are really easy garden plants as long as they get alot of sunshine.
canterlevi I picked up salvia at Home Depot, popped them in the ground and they took off. The only care they need is water and a pruning after the first flush of flowers have faded for a second flush.

The video is geared toward nurseries. They're talking about how to get the plants ready to sell
There is no such thing as advanced gardening. It's an experiment forever. Although, a few Salvias will make you look like a pro.

Fantastic information very useful
Thankyou very much for the video
I love salvia because the bees love salvia.
Are the seeds sterile? I've noticed some the older varieties are more invasive. But don't know If the newer species are better.

Do u trim to ground in fall?
Do you sell the bare root kinds to the general public? I love salvia and I’m wanting to plant a new bed with mostly salvias.
This salvia is actually hv how many color ,my country I found blue,pink,white so far
Will the deer eat them?
according to info i've gathered, deer do not show interest in the plant.
This sounds so complicated. This plant is so pretty but is this a plant meant for experienced gardeners? Thank you.
I picked some up but after watching this, I regret it
Karen A What happened?
@@canterlevi It just seems so complicated but I will still try. Maybe it's easier done than said??? Thank you for all the information!
