Salvia - Amethyst Lips
Two-Tone Blooms, Pollinator Delight
A new entry in the Hot Lips series, the two-lipped flowers on this outstanding sage are a vivid wine red color, offset by white tops. Sprouting in opposite pairs off straight stems 30" tall, these flowers are a must-stop destination for hummingbirds. Slender aromatic leaves add appeal to the summer and fall flowers. With a multitude of flowering stems as plants mature, this 2' wide salvia is a real showstopper. It adds sparkle to a sunny bed, is perfect for a porch pot and is a valuable addition to a pollinator garden. Dried branches bring a woodsy aroma into the home. Easy to grow, drought tolerant and not prone to disease or insect problems, this sage is perfect for those without a green thumb! Plant in fertile, well-drained soil in full sun to light shade. Prune back to 1' tall in late winter to stimulate new growth. Deer and rabbit resistant.

Guarantee
We guarantee the perishable items we sell to be in good, viable condition when we sell them. Perishable items include, but are not limited to, garlic bulbs, flower bulbs, seed potatoes, onion sets & transplants, potted or bare root trees, vegetable crowns, etc. If your perishable item arrives in substandard condition, take photographs and please contact us within 3 days of the purchase date (or delivery date) and we will provide you with a refund of the purchase price (excluding shipping costs), or a replacement. Accordingly, we urge you to open any boxes marked as ""Perishable"" immediately upon receiving them and inspect the shipment thoroughly (do not crack open heads of garlic, we do not accept claims on cracked garlic). Because some perishable items can deteriorate very quickly, we cannot accept any claims beyond the 3-day time frame as it becomes too difficult to determine if these items were delivered in substandard condition, or if they turned into such substandard condition because of having been improperly cared for or stored once delivered.
