What Makes Survival Garden Seeds Different - non-GMO heirloom seeds

Grow vibrant Victoria Blue Sage with Survival Garden Seeds. Also known as mealycup sage, this striking native wildflower is recognized by its deep blue-purple blooms and the distinctive powdery texture that coats its cup-shaped flowers. A reliable perennial in warm climates and an easy annual in cooler regions, Victoria Blue Sage thrives in full sun, heat, and drought, bringing long-lasting color and movement to garden beds.

Native to Texas and parts of Mexico, this sage variety is valued for its extended bloom season and its ability to attract bees, butterflies, and nectar-loving birds. Its elongated, shiny leaves set it apart from other sages, adding a graceful vertical accent to pollinator gardens, borders, and wildflower plantings.

Colorful, Hardy, and Perfect for Pollinators:

  • Produces vivid blue-purple flower spikes that create standout garden color
  • Naturally drought-tolerant once established
  • A native North American species ideal for wildflower and habitat gardens
  • Attracts bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds throughout the season
  • Works well as a perennial in warm climates or an annual in cooler regions

Why Customers Love Victoria Blue Sage:

  • Dependable, heat-loving plant with long-lasting blooms
  • Excellent pollinator support for a thriving garden ecosystem
  • Unique flower form and powdery texture add visual interest
  • Low-maintenance and adaptable to a wide range of soils

How to Grow:

  • Start seeds indoors 6–8 weeks before the last frost or sow outdoors after frost risk has passed
  • Plant in full sun with well-drained soil
  • Keep soil lightly moist during germination, then reduce watering as plants establish
  • Space plants to allow airflow and encourage strong, upright growth
  • Expect perennial performance in warm regions and annual growth in colder climates

Harvest & Use:
Enjoy the long flower spikes in the garden or cut them for fresh arrangements. Leaving blooms in place supports pollinators and encourages continued flowering throughout the season.
