Apex Pink Salvia | Salvia nemorosa ‘Apex Pink’ | Apex Pink Meadow Sage | Salvia ‘Apex Pink’
Apex Pink Salvia is a stunning, sun-loving herbaceous perennial prized for its spectacular, continuous profusion of densely packed, bright pink flower spikes that bloom prolifically from early summer well into the fall. This exceptionally tough, heat-tolerant selection is known for its remarkable, compact, upright habit and highly aromatic, finely textured green foliage. Its intensely nectar-rich blossoms are an absolute magnet for bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds, making it a spectacular, low-maintenance thriller for sunny landscape borders, pollinator gardens, and mixed patio containers. With its bold, vibrant color and reliable performance through challenging heat, humidity, and dry conditions, Apex Pink offers an extraordinary display of lush summer blooms with exceptionally straightforward care.
Growing Apex Pink Salvia
Light: Full sun; thrives in bright, direct sunlight (at least 6 to 8 hours per day) to produce the most abundant blooms, the strongest stems, and maintain a tight, compact, upright form. Too much shade will cause the plant to become leggy and significantly reduce flowering.
Soil: Light, well-drained soil; highly adaptable to poor, sandy, or average soils as long as drainage is excellent. It is extremely susceptible to root rot in heavy, waterlogged clay, especially during the cold, wet winter months.
Water: Low to moderate; water regularly until established, then allow the top few inches of soil to dry out completely between waterings. It is exceptionally drought-tolerant once mature and strongly dislikes consistently wet feet.
Maintenance: Exceptionally low maintenance. Deadhead spent flower spikes promptly to encourage a continuous, prolific second flush of blooms throughout the season. In late winter or early spring, shear the old foliage back to the basal rosette just before new growth emerges to maintain a tidy appearance.
Wildlife: Highly attractive to bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds; naturally deer- and rabbit-resistant due to its strongly aromatic foliage.
Hardiness: Perennial in USDA zones 4–9; exceptionally cold-hardy and reliable across a wide range of climates provided it has excellent winter drainage.

The milkweed is not doing well...
Very healthy cutting. Followed the instructions and let it get acclimated to its new surroundings for a couple of weeks before repotting. Would not hesitate to purchase from this business again 😃
Plants arrived in great condition. This plant has only been in the ground about 10 days and is growing a lot. The plant cage is 12” tall so it’s doing well. I put guards around my new plants for a little while because I have bunnies who love tender young leaves.
Got this for my wife’s birthday. Plan to pot it soon.
I got 2 mystery plants (one indoor and one outdoor). The indoor was a pilea and the outdoor plant was a white blackberry. White blackberry was dramatic, but it’s making a comeback and the pilea is doing great!
Came in well packed and the plant was alive and healthy!
Even though the newest leaf was broken off it seems to be doing well
My little banana arrived happy and healthy!
The plant arrived well packaged with instructions on how to get started. It had been doing really well and has been growing like a weed!
It is just putting roots down now.
Received in great condition, transplanted just before heavy rain and its thriving
Just a little shock put her in a fabric pot on the back porch full sun should be happy thank you for the lovely plant
Fair price good looking plant can’t wait for it to get bigger!
Need to upgrade your packaging. I would suggest taping the plant in place in the cardboard tube on the count that it slid and smashed itself. Luckily, it's a strong plant and should recover. Hoping.for the best.
So Beautiful. Packaged well . Love my little guy.
It’s so cool I love it!!!
She is doing well even after a rough delivery. She is thriving and putting on new growth. Thank you.
The plant arrived after a few delivery reroutes. It came with three leaves two so far are healthy one was dying and has since died. The two remaining leaves appear to be doing well.
After overcoming the initial travel stress. The plants are doing well.
The follow up plants were very good
Customer service here is second to none! Very very happy and already made another purchase. But anyway, I ordered 1 and they sent me 2 beautiful babies! I'm so excited to watch them grow!
This little guy came in perfect. Despite the cat knocking it over and being placed in the soup cup for safer keeping, it’s thriving and happy. Once it’s bigger then it will make its way outdoors.
I like it very much and looking forward to eating some cherries
This is my first year of ordering live plants on line. I live in an apt, but have a nice size patio to do container planting. I'm waking up my green thumb and loving it.
Got a great little house plant for $9.99!!!
I am very happy for all the Butterworth I got extra like usual which was nice I put them all in pots for now I'll do my project later after they get growing thank you
Plant came packaged perfectly. Fast shipping. Can’t wait to see it grow!
I received what I believe is a very healthy plant. Unfortunately, the shipping was very hard on the plant. It is quickly bouncing back. Wish I would have known it was a seedling .
The package arrived with no issues. The fig was very stable & looked like it came out of the nursery (it did). The USDA certificates for Gypsy moth /Japanese beetles ensures the plant were checked makes me feel I finally found an institution which cares about the customer & plant. Thanks Jose
Thank you
I’m excited about this tiny banana tree and can’t wait to see it grow more! It came well packed and in perfect shape. Now this beautiful little plant has burned leaves, but that’s my fault because I left it out on my patio in the sun for a long time. Don’t do what I did. But you can see a new leaf already sprouting in the middle and just about to unfurl. I have no doubt this tiny tree will grow well.
Cute and healthy
The flavor is bold and complex—less of the light, floral sweetness you get from typical clover honey and more of a deep, almost molasses-like richness. It has a rich, robust profile, and it definitely delivers on that promise. The texture is thick and smooth, exactly what you’d expect from raw honey. It pours slowly and coats well, making it perfect for drizzling over toast, yogurt, or even pairing with cheeses. It may be a bit intense for those used to lighter honeys, but for anyone who appreciates bold, natural flavors, this is a standout choice.
Everything was done on time.
Very healthy plants and excellent packaging. Thank you
They were very helpful and sent me a beautiful dapple dandy and a nice polinizer. The polinizer was not quite as large as the dappled dandy but still looks like a nice tree. I'm waiting for the polinizer to come out of dormancy and hopefully when it does then I'll be completely satisfied. I would purchase from this company again if the polinizer survives the shipping experience.
The plants arrived in perfect condition and the soil was still wet! They are happy in their pot and im looking forward to beautiful blooms and being visited by hummingbirds this summer and future years!
1 out of the 4 had a damaged stem. I believe it’s salvageable. Packaging was good, just disappointing one was damaged.
My avocado tree came in great condition. I had an issue with the first shipment (got delayed from a winter storm) but I sent an email about it and quickly received another in great condition! Highly recommend this nursery.
