Blaze of Fire

Perennial upright bushy plants with oval pointed, hairy, green leaves that produce spikes of tubular bright red flowers. A compact cultivar that grows to 30 cm tall with rich green foliage produces vivid scarlet flower spikes with an invigorating fragrance throughout summer.

Ideal for cottage gardens, bedding, pots or containers as well as being outstanding for mass planting. Like all other salvias families, its flowers are attractive to bees. Grow in moist but well-drained soil in a sunny, sheltered site. Deadheading spent blooms will prolong flowering.

It is self-sewing where climatic conditions suit and excellent as a dried or cut flower. Most importantly, it’s gorgeous and thrives on total neglect.
