Consumer care requirements
VIBE Ignition Purple prefers loose, well-drained soil and blooms best when fertilizer is limited. It tolerates heat and loves full sun but also likes a bit of shade. They should be pruned to a few inches above ground in spring after threat of frost passes. Don’t prune sages in summer or fall, because that can cause water to fill their characteristically hollow stems.
