Few flowers are quite as essential as the Salvia, a plant of the moment which is as low maintenance as it is high performing. It takes just a little care to keep these ocean deep blues, rich purples and eye-catching reds flourishing well into the autumn months.

Not only are colourful varieties like Jezebel and Amistad also edible, but they’re an indomitable blackspot deterrent and great for cutting. Sarah & Arthur take a look at this must-have family of long-blooming flowers in this week’s ‘grow, cook, eat, arrange’, and serve up a spectacular recipe for butternut squash.

In this episode, discover:

The new, exciting, and vigorous varieties of Salvia that are ideal for pots
Particularly useful Salvias for companion planting with Roses to battle blackspot
How to take Salvia cuttings to grow youthful, vigorous plants, ready for when your current flowers start to wane
Making the most of sage at its best this time of year in an incredible recipe for butternut squash
