Salvia 'African Sky' is a horticultural selection within the genus Salvia, placed in the family Lamiaceae. As a named cultivar it is assessed and sold on its flowering performance; its principal season of interest is June to September when it carries its floral display. Gardeners should treat it as a garden salvia: position it where the sequence of summer flowers is visible and accessible for pruning and deadheading if needed to sustain the display. Regular checks through the flowering months will let you remove spent flowers and tidy stems, helping maintain vigour throughout the season. Established plants are typically managed by shaping or shortening stems after the main flush of blooms to renew form for the following year. Use Salvia 'African Sky' where a dependable summer flowering period is wanted — it suits mixed borders and positions where its season-long bloom can complement perennials and annuals that flower earlier or later. Its predictable flowering window from June to September makes it a practical choice for planning continuous summer colour in a planting scheme.
