Salvia greggii red (Autumn Sage red)
$ 4.98
Autumn Sage is a versatile, semi-evergreen perennial that can handle both sun and part shade. It is drought tolerant once established, and its blooms attract bees and hummingbirds. It prefers well-draining soil that is rich in organic matter. Trimming or pinching tips promotes continuous blooms. In early spring, you can prune it one-third to halfway back to produce thicker, more compact foliage.
