"The Salvia æMarcusÆ, Salvia nemorosa, is a new dwarf version of the Salvia æMay NightÆ. With its compact, dense habit of growing, it is easy to accommodate in any perennial garden. Spikes of intense violet-blue flowers bloom on top gray-green foliage and flower from June to October. æMarcusÆ has a plant height of 12ö and a spread of 12-18ö. It is hardy for container gardening, as a border plant and provides excellent cut flowers. Blooms look wonderful next to Sedum æMatronaÆ, Achillea 'Coronation Gold' and Saliva æSnow HillÆ."
