Salvia Hot Lips is a show-stopping variety, admired for its striking red and white bi-colour blooms that bring a vibrant energy to any garden. The uniquely shaped, lip-like flowers create an eye-catching contrast against the lush green foliage, making this plant a standout feature in borders, containers, or mixed planting schemes. Its lively appearance is perfect for adding a touch of charm and elegance to both traditional and modern garden designs.

Flowering profusely from late spring to early autumn, this salvia offers a continuous display of bold colours throughout the growing season. The aromatic foliage adds an extra dimension of sensory delight, releasing a pleasant fragrance when brushed or handled. This combination of beauty and scent makes it an excellent choice for creating inviting outdoor spaces that are as relaxing as they are visually appealing.

Not just a treat for the eyes, Salvia Hot Lips is also a favourite among pollinators. Bees, butterflies, and other beneficial insects are drawn to its nectar-rich flowers, helping to support local wildlife and promote biodiversity in your garden. Thriving in sunny, well-drained spots, it’s a robust and reliable plant that performs well even in challenging conditions, such as drought or poor soil.

Low-maintenance and easy to grow, this salvia is ideal for gardeners of all skill levels. A light trim after flowering encourages fresh growth and keeps the plant looking neat while promoting an abundance of blooms. Whether used as a striking standalone feature, planted in groups for maximum impact, or combined with complementary plants, it brings lasting beauty and vibrancy to any outdoor space.

With its stunning flowers, fragrant foliage, and wildlife-friendly qualities, Salvia Hot Lips is a must-have for gardeners seeking to create a colourful and lively garden that thrives all season long.
