Salvia ‘April Night’ – Sage is a compact, early-blooming perennial that produces dense spikes of deep violet-blue flowers starting in mid-spring and continuing into early summer. As one of the earliest blooming salvias, ‘April Night’ adds a welcome splash of color to the spring garden and attracts pollinators including bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds. It features aromatic, gray-green foliage that is deer- and rabbit-resistant, making it a hardy choice for low-maintenance landscapes.
Growing just 12-14 inches tall and wide, this compact sage thrives in full sun and well-drained soils. ‘April Night’ is drought-tolerant once established and makes an excellent choice for sunny borders, pollinator gardens, and mass plantings. Though not native to North America, it’s prized for its long bloom season, compact form, and ease of care.

‘April Night’ Sage thrives in full sun and prefers well-drained soil. It is tolerant of poor, sandy, or dry soils and requires minimal water once established. For best performance, plant it in areas with good air circulation to prevent fungal issues.
This compact perennial grows about 10 to 12 inches tall and spreads 12 to 18 inches wide, making it ideal for borders, containers, or small garden spaces.
It blooms earlier than many salvias, typically starting in mid-to-late spring and continuing into summer, with potential for reblooming into fall if deadheaded. The deep violet-blue flower spikes rise above fragrant, textured foliage.
Yes! ‘April Night’ is a magnet for pollinators, attracting bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds. It’s also deer- and rabbit-resistant, making it a hardy, low-maintenance addition to wildlife-friendly gardens.
No, it’s very low-maintenance. Regular deadheading will promote reblooming throughout the season. Cut it back in late fall or early spring to tidy the plant and encourage fresh growth. Once established, it’s drought-tolerant and generally pest- and disease-free.
