How to Germinate Clary Sage Blue Monday

How to Germinate Clary Sage Blue Monday (Salvia horminum)

  • Sow Clary Sage Blue Monday seeds indoors 6-8 weeks before the last expected frost date.
  • Plant seeds 1/8 inch deep in seed-starting trays filled with a well-draining potting mix.
  • Keep the soil temperature between 65-70°F (18-21°C) for optimal germination, which usually takes 7-14 days.
  • Keep the soil consistently moist, but not waterlogged, during the germination period.
  • Once seedlings have 2-3 sets of true leaves, transplant them outdoors, spacing them 12-18 inches apart.
  • Harden off seedlings for a week before transplanting to help them adjust to outdoor conditions.

Additional Tips

  • Clary Sage Blue Monday prefers full sun and well-draining soil, though it can tolerate partial shade.
  • Water regularly, keeping the soil slightly moist, but avoid overwatering as the plant is drought-tolerant once established.
  • Apply a light mulch around the base of the plants to retain moisture and suppress weeds.
  • Pinch back the growing tips to encourage bushier growth and more blooms.
  • Harvest the colorful bracts as they appear and use them fresh or dried for floral arrangements.
