Salvia pratensis 'Fashionista Pretty in Pink'

🌱Spring

• Spring - late · Outdoors

  Feed with slow release fertiliser

  Apply a general purpose slow release fertiliser, spreading it around the root area of the plant as it is coming into growth. (Or apply a liquid feed at regular intervals throughout the growing season.)

  This is a simple way to provide a nutrient boost as a single annual procedure.

• Spring-Autumn · Outdoors

  Water during dry periods

  For plants in the ground, when there has been little or no rain for a period of 7-10 days and the soil is dry, give it a deep watering and repeat weekly until there is a downpour of rain. Check plants in pots more frequently, especially in hot weather.

• Spring - mid-late · Planting

  Trim the plant

  Trim the plant to give it a general tidy. This includes removing any lengthy or awkward shoots that make the plant look visually less attractive. Remove any spent flower heads at the same time.
