The
foliage on salvia plants differ as well. Most salvia have
deep green foliage that grows off of woody stems. The salvia
discolor has foliage that is green on the topside, and fuzzy
gray on the underside. Some salvia plants even have foliage
that begins as a bright purple or gold, and will turn a soft
green with age.
When choosing
salvia plants to add to a garden, it is important to note
that not all salvia plants are hardy. In fact, most of the
salvia plants available on the market today will not survive
frost. There are some exceptions to this rule. Some salvia
plants that will be hardy in zones as low as four are the
salvia x superba, and the may night.
