Victoria Blue Sage Seeds for Planting - 1 Pack | Heirloom Mealycup Salvia farinacea, Pollinator Flowers for Borders and Cottage Gardens - Survival Garden Seeds

My mom didn't read instructions and put them in water for a while. I took them out and they were already forming gel-like layer. I tried my best to scatter them on soil, and slightly press them. They germinated in about a week, the photo is second week. I didn't use grow light much. I just noticed they are annual at my location, so I'll just grow them for fun.

I absolutely love this plant and the seed stock is incredible. I bought the seeds and planted them in 2024, they perennials, I added more in 2025 and now I’m adding more in 2026. Zone 9a.

This item never produced any flowers. It only looked like a weed.

Planted in the spring with marigolds and multiple other flowers. Everything group at these. I planted some on my family dog’s grave and not one of them grew. I also planted some in the front of my house and not one sprout from that batch either.

great!

Sprouted indoors under lights in a seed sprouting box, then moved outside and I’m now up to my ears in growing salvia. The seeds are small, so thin ruthlessly. Hummingbirds love the deep purple blooms, and best of all, I’m not paying $7.59 a plant for colors I don’t like at Lowe’s! Instead, I’m giving plants away.

I started these sage seeds in pots and planted them out into the garden as soon as the weather began to warm in the spring. They started to bloom in late spring and haven’t stopped since. The plants have survived the summer heat with many days well above 100 degrees here in California’s Central Valley. It is now almost January and they have kept blooming despite multiple frosts and several mornings at or slightly below freezing. The local hummingbirds love the flowers and small finches munch on the seeds, so the plants attract wildlife as well. I have nothing negative to say about this Victoria Blue sage.

Low growth rate. 2-3 plants produced from entire packet.
