It is a bushy, upright plant with intense color and unusually large flowers. Best of all, it has very good heat tolerance for the hot humid days of summer.

It boasts strong stems, and a dense growth habit. It makes an excellent plant for adding height to combination containers. Salvia ‘Velocity Blue’ makes a great landscape plant for ground beds or mixed containers, especially when used with other bright red or yellow annuals.
