Salvia Amethyst Lips 9cm

Product Description

New for 2019, this delightful perennial salvia is closely related to the much-admired Hot Lips, & similarly produces an abundance of eye-catching, bicoloured (or sometimes solid) violet & white flowers throughout the summer. An unusual & very pretty hardy member of the sage family, Amethyst Lips is a great doer & will look incredible in a patio pot or in a sunny border! The bright, two-tone flowers will light up your garden in violet & white, from early summer to the first frosts in October, in a wonderful 5-month display. As a bonus, the leaves are lightly scented too which only adds to the appeal of this charming plant. This salvia is winter hardy & will die back underground in the autumn only to burst into life again with fresh new growth each spring. In cooler summers, you will get whiter flowers, & in hot ones you will get lots of violet. This Salvia is really easy to care for & flowers prolifically with minimal care perfect for beginners!
