Description:
Salvia 'Ember's Wish' is not likely to be hardy for most people but the hummingbirds are begging for it. They really are! Large, bright coral-red flowers are produced all summer long atop scented foliage. Drought and heat tolerant so its blooms will not fade in the heat. Ornamental sages are useful for full to part sun locations. Grow in a protected location against the house or in a pot that can be protected in winter or treat as an annual. Customers return every year to buy this plant as well as 'Love and Wishes' and 'Amistad' because they are so good at attracting hummers.
