I have some lovely Salvia greggi (autumn sage) that was pumping out blooms early and constantly. Yesterday I noticed that the it had stopped blooming and already had seed 'pods' on it. Dang! Could it just be taking a breather or should I be concerned?
It's in my perennial bed and other salvias are still blooming.
I've heard a rumor that salvias and other perennials planted in beds are not crazy about being fed. Don't know if this is true. I do have lots of yummy stuff (liquid seaweed, fish emulsion, etc) that I'd be happy to feed them.
What to do?
Here's a 'before' picture that was taken on April 4th.
