Salvia greggii - Royal Bumble
Royal Bumble, Bold Garden Accent
THE most INTENSE scarlet red blooms I've ever seen on a Salvia! Eye-popping 1/2" blooms stand out against black calyxes and prominent, black, upright stems. To 30" x 30" with a compact, bushy habit, it never stops blooming here in coastal California, attracting hummers, bees and butterflies. Prune back a bit annually to maintain tidiness. Best in well-drained soil, side-dress with compost in Spring. EASY,drought tolerant and deer resistant! Hardy to 15-20° F. Big thanks to Derry Watkins of Special Plants Nursery in England.

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.
