I live in zone 5a which we get snow and below freezing conditions. Thank you, Diana. I think your best bet is to dig it up and put it in a pot for winter. You can cut back the foliage, leaving an inch or two of stem.
Keep the soil moist but be careful of overwatering. Plan on planting it back outdoors once the danger of frost has passed in mid to late spring. Or, if the pot is big enough, keep it as a potted plant through summer! Salvia are fairly easy to grow, thankfully! My salvia plug plants a very strong but all of the new leaves coming through are yellow. They are all strong butt the older leaves are dark green! However, it also could be due to poor soil conditions.
For example, it may be a lack of nitrogen the N in NPK , on a fertilizer package. You can add organic compost to the soil. They say these need to be watered regularly but mine are all dying back and turning black. I must be doing something wrong. Seems they do better with little water during the summer. Thank you for the helpful info on caring for Salvias. My plants are attracting many pollinators including honey bees, bumble bees, butterflies, and humming birds.

See local frost dates. Choosing a Location All salvias thrive in full sun and well-drained soil. Many varieties typically those with light-colored flowers will also do well in part-shade, but flowering will be reduced. A south-facing location is ideal. Salvias look great when planted in groupings of three or more.
Preparing a Planting Site Loosen the soil to a depth of 12 inches, removing any large stones or roots. These salvia are an excellent choice for gardeners across most of the United States. They are well adapted to cold climates and a wide range of soils including clay. The European Salvia are incredibly attractive to honey bees, many of our native bees and bumble bees as well as butterflies.

Hummingbirds relish salvias of all colors, not just red! Salvias are in the mint family, all of which have a characteristic square stem. And many are strongly scented, including common culinary sage Salvia officinalis and pineapple sage S. Flowers of many varieties are borne on flower spikes held above the foliage. Most salvias, whether red or blue, are very attractive to hummingbirds and butterflies. Salvias are hot weather plants, most preferring full sun for best performance.
Many salvias bloom non-stop from spring through first frost. But, an occasional shearing is recommended to keep most varieties more compact, resulting in a new burst of heavy blooming in just a few weeks or less.
Many of the native perennial Salvia species are drought tolerant once established, but most will need regular water to look their best. However, do not over-water or over-fertilize, or floppy plants will result.
