Salvia greggii 'Lipstick' 1 gal

Description

Salvia ‘Lipstick’ is one of the longest-flowering and best-performing Texas sage cultivars. It begins flowering in early May and continues through November. Each compact clump of ‘Lipstick’ is simply smothered in terminal flower spikes of lipstick-red flowers, each highlighted by a white throat and brown calyx…a bee, butterfly and hummingbird fiesta. Texas sage makes a great deer-resistant, drought-tolerant foreground addition to a grouping of ornamental grasses.

Salvia is a large genus of plants with over 1,000 varieties. They are generally drought tolerant, deer resistant, and their colorful blooms last for weeks from spring through fall. Evergreen perennials with lovely, fragrant foliage. They are low-maintenance and require little fertilization. These beauties are attractive not only to humans, but pollinators such as hummingbirds, bees and butterflies!
