Hi all,
Salvia superba 'Rose Queen' is an especially long flowering Salvia, from May
through October. We have a good stock of large size plants --- I've never
seen it get to 36"-- but you never know-- with just the right conditions....
there are many other Salvias that do get that tall. Salvia transylvanica is
one that gets 3' tall--Salvia uliginosa does as well.
