Salvia 'Dark Dancer' is a Rich Dufresne selection of a seedling from California's Mike Nevin Smith. The 3-4' wide deer-resistant clumper is clothed with narrow green foliage and is topped with large, raspberry-colored flowers...a hummingbird delight. The flowering show of Salvia 'Dark Dancer' is heavy in spring and fall and sporadic through the warm muggy days of summer...truly SUPERB!
