Salvia patens 'Patio Lilac'

  • Product number: 602420
  • Origin: Mexico
  • Latin: Salvia patens

There are many Salvias, but the patens is of extra beauty. The flower cluster is sparse and the labiate flowers are large with long lips. The color is a rare lilac-pink! A fresh harmony with the light green of the hairy stems and leaves... The height is 75-90 cm, keep the plants in a frost-free place; a harsh winter is fatal.

Denominations:
Latin: Salvia patens
Dutch: Salie
English: Gentian sage
