Salvia Horminum - White Swan. This sage is a clumping annual that produces multiple sturdy branches. It is hardy, vigorous, and compact bearing multiple spikes of large showy white flowers from summer to fall. Easy to grow and maintain, and it will grow well when directly sown into the ground. Attracts Hummingbirds, Butterflies and Bees and other pollinators and is a good food source for pollinators. The flowers will bloom in approximately 70 days, and are considered a “cut and come back” flower. It is a self sower and can be deadheaded if desired to promote further blooms. The plant is pest and disease free, and is very happy in moist well drained soil with partial shade. Be sure to give adequate water subject to climate conditions.

I urge anyone buying seed to do their homework on germination, I have not raised and cannot raise many of these plants as I am sub-tropics here in St Augustine, Florida. All seed are NOT alike! There are so many different factors in germination and not doing a search is throwing your money away. I want everyone to be successful when growing your flowers from seed it is the most rewarding experience in Gardening and you can do it, if you give the seed what it needs to grow. I always check 3 sites of info to choose how I will go about it. It is not hard to do, if you do it right!
SEED GERMINATION TIP!!!!!!!
ONLY GERMINATE A SMALL PORTION AT A TIME.
DON'T PUT ALL YOUR MONKEYS IN A BARREL.
Good Luck and Happy Planting!!!!
