This Spring I planted a Salvia Amistad.It must like its site as it is now about 6ft by 6ft and still in full bloom and its lower stems are 3/4 inch thick .How do I approach the pruning next Spring? As its a fairly new plant the web literature is a bit confusing.yours sincerely,Idris.

How lucky. We bought this and what is left of it is now all of 2 inches tall and wide. The molluscs here adore it.

Thought I'd lost mine but noticed the other day it's about three inches tall.

Don't cut it now as winter approaches - according to the RHS, pruning isn't necessary other than trimming off dead bits and spent flowers. Height up to 1.2 metres
