The color is lovely!
Many years ago, when I was still newer to growing Salvias, I found a Salvia patens at a local nursery with a variegated-leaf sport on one stem. Unfortunately, the tag that came with that Salvia patens recommended full sun and drier soil. Needless to say, that really didn't work in Georgia and the plant didn't survive long at all. Stupid tag!
Rest in peace, little guy...
P.S. Obviously, my plant was NOT 'Patio Sky Blue' but a darker blue cultivar.
